Muscle Recipe – Proast! High-Protein French Toast

• Tweet

Another tasty muscle recipe for you that’s low in Glycemic Load.

Miss French toast?
Now you can have this high-protein version to feed your hungry muscles and satisfy your taste buds.

Ideally, the type of bread to use is Rye kernel (pumpernickel) bread, which looks like this:

This type of bread is a favorite in Germany and should be a staple in your GLAD diet. It’s readily available all over the world so you shouldn’t have a problem getting your hands on it.

1 slice has a GL of 6, so you can enjoy 2 slices in one sitting to fill your belly without sending your blood sugar sky-high.

If you can’t buy pumpernickel locally, use Volkenbrot (wholemeal rye bread) for a GL of 7, or Wholemeal Rye Bread for a GL of 8.

Now the FUN part…

(1) Crack 1 egg into a bowl and whisk. Now add about 20 grams of whey protein isolate and mix together (I found banana whey was a GORGEOUS flavor for French toast). This is enough mixture for 2 slices.

(2) If you want to sweeten further, add some stevia, truvia, erythritol, or xylitol to stay natural. If you don’t mind splenda, use a teaspoon of that instead.

(3) After it’s all mixed, take your bread and soak both sides in the sticky goo – 1 slice at a time and make sure it’s well saturated.

(4) Place it in your frying pan for a short while on both sides. Less than a minute will cook these to perfection – don’t overdo it.

(5) Remove and salt to taste (use a low-sodium salt).
