Ingredients
- Low Carb Bread - I used 4 slices of the Eat Royo Low Carb Artisan Bread. I love these because they are full of whole grains, keto friendly, high fiber, non-GMO, and only 30 calories a slice! Use the code COOKINGKATIELADY at checkout to get 10% off your order!
- Almond Milk - I used 1/2 cup of unsweetened vanilla flavored almond milk. You can use any kind of milk you would like though, such at oat milk.
- Egg - 1 large egg
- Protein Powder - Use 30 grams of your preferred protein powder. My personal favorite is by the brand Prozis (either the zero diet whey vanilla or the natural vanilla whey isolate). You can actually use the code "KATIE10" for 10% off at Prozis!
- Cinnamon - I used 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon.
- Nutmeg - 1/4 teaspoon, for flavor.
- Vanilla Extract- I used 1 teaspoon, for flavor.
- Salt - Just a pinch, for flavor.
How To Make Them
These are so quick & easy!
- Preheat a large skillet with a little bit of butter or nonstick spray over medium heat.
- Whisk all ingredients together in a medium mixing bowl. Drench each slice of bread generously in the protein egg mixture.
- Place each slice in your preheated skillet and cook for about 3 minutes on each side.
- Top with sugar free maple syrup and fresh fruit if desired and enjoy!
Why Is Consuming Protein Important?
- Protein is nutrient-rich, so it helps you stay fuller longer. You are more likely to eat less when you have high protein meals because you won't have the munchies!
- It boosts your metabolism & increases fat burning.
- It increases muscles & strength. If you are lifting weights and not eating enough protein, you aren't going to see much of a difference!
- It lowers your blood pressure.
