Make thick-cut French toast with added protein for a satisfying brunch. This recipe offers both air fryer and skillet methods.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 slices thick-cut bread
  • 1 scoop (30g) vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Cooking spray or butter for skillet
  • Optional toppings: berries, syrup, Greek yogurt

Instructions

  1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, protein powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla extract until well combined and smooth.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
  3. For Skillet: Heat a lightly oiled or buttered skillet over medium heat. Cook the coated bread for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  4. For Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the coated bread in the basket in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Using unflavored protein powder allows the cinnamon and vanilla flavors to shine.
  • For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free bread.
  • Adjust cooking time in the air fryer based on your appliance.
