Ingredients
- 2 large whole eggs
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon sweetener
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (optional)
- 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce (optional, instead of eggs)
- Butter or non-stick cooking spray (for cooking)
- Texas toast (or other bread of choice)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
Step 1: Prepare the Batter
Start by grabbing a food processor or blender.
Add in the following ingredients: 2 large whole eggs, ½ cup of cottage cheese, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and 1 tablespoon of sweetener.
If you’d like an extra protein boost, you can also add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder or any flavor you prefer.
Blend or process the mixture until it’s smooth and well combined.
Step 2: Soak the Bread
Once your batter is ready, pour it into a dish that is wide enough to accommodate your chosen bread.
Select your bread type—options include low carb bread, higher protein options, or classic choices like thick cut Texas toast.
Place a piece of bread into the mixture and allow it to soak for a few minutes.
For better results, let the bread soak longer so it absorbs more of the mixture.
Step 3: Heat the Pan
While the bread soaks, heat a pan or griddle over medium heat.
Add a little butter or non-stick cooking spray to the pan to prevent sticking.
Allow it to heat up until it’s hot enough for cooking.
Step 4: Cook the French Toast
Once the pan is heated, carefully place the soaked bread onto the surface.
Cook each side for about 2 to 3 minutes until they turn golden brown.
If the bread is thick, you might need to adjust the cooking time slightly to ensure it cooks through.
Step 5: Optional Tips and Serving Suggestions
For those who want to make a larger batch, feel free to double or triple the recipe.
You can also prepare the mixture the night before for added convenience in the morning.
If you have leftovers, reheat them in the microwave for 30 seconds, in a toaster, or in an air fryer for a couple of minutes.
Enhance your French toast with protein frosting or your favorite toppings for a delightful finish!
