Anabolic French Toast
As Coach Greg Doucette says (or screams), THERE ARE NO RULES IN THE ANABOLIC KITCHEN! Anabolic french toast is essentially fluffy, egg-white soaked bread that’s cooked in a pan. It can be either sweet or savory, eaten fresh or reheated from frozen.
To add flavor to the toast, you can mix in some extras into the egg whites before soaking the bread.
Sweet: granulated or liquid sweeteners, cinnamon, vanilla extract
Savory: popcorn seasoning, dried herbs, black pepper
Some of my favorite sweet topping combos include:
Greek yogurt, cinnamon, mangoes, and maple syrup
Greek yogurt, strawberries, and maple syrup
Peanut butter and jelly or frozen berries
Chocolate peanut butter and strawberries
Bananas, walnuts, chocolate chips, and maple syrup
Mixed berries and cream
Some of my favorite savory topping combos include:
Sautéed greens, mushrooms, and/or peppers and parmesan cheese
Cottage cheese with black pepper, flaky sea salt, and red pepper flakes
Greek yogurt, dill, lemon juice, avocado, sliced cucumbers and smoked salmon

Ingredients
- 4 slices of bread, any kind

Directions
- Heat a large nonstick pan over low heat.
- Meanwhile, whisk egg whites, salt, and mix-ins of choice in a large, shallow bowl.
- Soak each slice of bread in the egg white mixture until soggy but not falling apart.
- Spray pan with nonstick spray, then carefully place a soaked piece of bread into the pan. Cook until golden brown, then flip. Repeat with all slices and top with anything you like!
No nutrition information because this recipe is so variable depending on toppings, type of bread, amount of oil used in pan, etc.
