Ingredients
    For the French Toast:
  • 2 bagels (sliced in half. I used the cinnamon raisin low carb bagels by Eat Royo. Use the code COOKINGKATIELADY at checkout to get 10% off your order!)
  • 2 eggs (medium, or 1 large)
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened, or milk of choice)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 30 g protein powder (organic - Code KATIE20 for 20% off at Truvani)
    • Cinnamon Butter:
  • 2 tbsp butter (softened)
  • 1 1/2 tbsp brown monk fruit
  • 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
    • Cinnamon "Sugar"
  • Mixture of monk fruit and cinnamon (to taste)
    • Cream Cheese Icing
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese (softened, organic)
  • 1/2 tbsp butter (softened, grass-fed)
  • Powdered monk fruit (to taste)
Instructions
  1. 1
    Mix together your cinnamon butter ingredients (butter, brown monk fruit, & cinnamon) and set aside.
  2. 2
    Mix together your cinnamon "sugar" on a plate or shallow bowl and set aside. This is just a mixture of cinnamon and monk fruit. I just eyeball it.
  3. 3
    Make your cream cheese icing by mashing together the softened cream cheese, softened butter, and some powdered sweetener, to taste. Set aside.
  4. 4
    Slice your bagels in half. Spread the cinnamon butter evenly among each bagel.
  5. 5
    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, salt & protein until smooth.
  6. 6
    Preheat a griddle over medium heat with a little bit of butter. Dip each bagel in the egg mixture. I let the bagels soak really well in the egg mixture. Bagels are more dense so it takes a little bit longer for them to soak up the egg mixture.
  7. 7
    Cook the bagels for about 4 minutes on each side, placing the buttered sides of the bagel down first).
  8. 8
    Coat each piece of French toast in the cinnamon “sugar” coating. Top with the cream cheese frosting and dig in! These are very sweet and you honestly don’t even need syrup, but you can top with some if you would like!
