Ingredients

For the French Toast

1 egg (large, organic)
1/4 cup pumpkin purée (organic)
1/3 cup almond milk (unsweetened, organic)
30 g protein powder (vanilla or unflavored works best)
1 tbsp coconut sugar (organic)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp cinnamon (ground)

For the Cream Cheese Filling

3 oz cream cheese (organic, softened)
1/4 cup Greek yogurt (plain, nonfat)
1 tsp lemon juice (fresh)

Instructions

1
Make the pumpkin batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, almond milk, pumpkin purée, protein powder, coconut sugar, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Mix until smooth and well combined.
2
Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, stir the softened cream cheese, Greek yogurt, and lemon juice until creamy and smooth.
3
Assemble the French toast: Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly onto three slices of Eat Royo bread. Place the remaining slices on top to create three stuffed “sandwiches.”
4
Dip the sandwiches: Submerge each sandwich into the pumpkin batter, letting the bread soak for a few seconds on each side until fully coated.
5
Cook the French toast: Heat a nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly coat with cooking spray or a small amount of coconut oil. Cook each stuffed sandwich for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp on the outside.
6
Serve: Enjoy warm, topped with a drizzle of pure maple syrup.
