Ingredients

• 8 slices Challah bread
• 4 pieces Large eggs
• 1.5 cups Milk (preferably high-protein milk like Fairlife)
• 1 scoop Vanilla protein powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Butter or oil (for cooking)
• 1 cup Fresh berries (optional, for serving)
• 0.5 cup Maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla protein powder, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter or oil.

Step 3

Dip each slice of challah bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let the excess batter drip off before placing it onto the skillet.

Step 4

Cook the challah slices in the skillet for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat if necessary to prevent burning.

Step 5

As each batch is cooked, transfer the French toast to a baking sheet and keep warm in a preheated oven set at 200°F (90°C), if needed.

Step 6

Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining challah slices, adding more butter or oil to the skillet as needed.

Step 7

Serve the French toast warm, garnished with fresh berries and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
