High-Protein Cinnamon French Toast with Greek Yogurt

Ingredients

• 201g Egg
• 64g Whole-wheat bread
• 120g 1% lowfat milk
• 150g Plain Greek yogurt
• 3g Granulated sugar

Method

1. 1In a shallow bowl, whisk together 4 whole eggs and 120ml low-fat milk until well combined and smooth.
2. 2Add 150g Greek yogurt to the mixture and whisk until fully incorporated and creamy. The yogurt will add protein and richness.
3. 3Add 1.5 teaspoons of ground cinnamon (or to taste) and 3g granulated sugar to the egg mixture. Whisk thoroughly until the cinnamon is evenly distributed throughout.
4. 4Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
5. 5Take one slice of whole-wheat bread and submerge it in the egg-yogurt mixture for 1-2 seconds per side, ensuring it absorbs the coating without becoming overly saturated.
6. 6Place the coated bread slice on the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden brown and sets properly.
7. 7Carefully flip the French toast and cook the other side for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown and cooked through.
8. 8Transfer the cooked French toast to a plate and repeat steps 5-7 with the remaining bread slice.
9. 9Serve immediately while warm. The high protein content means this meal can be eaten plain or with minimal toppings (fresh berries, Greek yogurt dollop, or a small drizzle of honey if desired).
10. 10Optional: For best results, eat within 30-60 minutes post-workout to maximize muscle protein synthesis.
