Hello HeyHaileyFam!
I think every Dad needs to know how to make some French toast and who said that a delightful breakfast can’t be nutritious? Dad’s Signature Vanilla Protein French Toast brings a wholesome twist to a classic favorite. Infused with vanilla protein and oat milk (or any other milk of your choice), and topped with a warm blueberry maple syrup, this dish not only tantalizes your taste buds but also provides a protein punch to kick-start your day. I also love to top this off with our home made Vanilla Protein Crumble to add some extra texture and flavor to the plate. Now let’s get to it!
