French toast is a staple breakfast item, especially when paired with high protein toppings. This recipe is great way to use up bread on hand, to make a quick & easy breakfast that can be meal prepped!
Servings: 2 toast pieces

Optional Toppings
- non-fat plain greek yogurt

Instructions
- In a bowl, whisk until fluffy: 2 eggs, 1 tsp sugar-free brown sugar, dash of vanilla extract, dash of sea salt.
- Place one slice of toast into the mixture and let soak for 1-2 minutes. Flip and let the mixture soak for the other side.

- Place one slice of coated toast in the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes per slide and flip.
- Repeat coat and cooking process in steps above, for the other slice.

You can also substitute the grass-fed butter, for coconut oil or spray avocado oil to heat the pan.
