This Protein French Toast is a classic breakfast dish that can be enjoyed in countless ways. Depending on how much protein powder you use, you can get from 29g to 35g of protein. Once cooked, serve your high-protein French toast with a drizzle of maple syrup or a dollop of Greek yogurt for an extra protein boost. You can also add sliced fruit or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flavor and nutrition.


This High Protein French Toast Recipe is perfect for a hearty breakfast. For a nutritious start, try pairing it with our Fiber and Protein Oatmeal.


Not only does this breakfast option provide sustained energy throughout the morning, but it also satisfies your cravings for something sweet and indulgent without sacrificing your health goals. Whether you're fueling up for a busy day ahead or simply treating yourself to a leisurely brunch, this high-protein French toast is sure to become a new favorite in your breakfast rotation.


Note: If you want to boost the protein content of this High-Protein French Toast recipe, you can top this off with hemp or chia seeds. Hemp seeds are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, and chia seeds are packed with fiber, making your snack tasty and good for your heart and digestion. You can also serve this with a side of eggs. I usually serve this with 3 egg whites bringing the protein up from 29g to 44g of protein.
