Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 8 slices whole grain bread
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup liquid egg whites
  • 1 cup cottage cheese
  • ½ cup milk
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 scoop (about 30g) vanilla protein powder (optional)
  • Butter or oil for the pan

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Blend cottage cheese, eggs, egg whites, milk, maple syrup, vanilla, cinnamon, and protein powder until smooth.
  2. Butter a 9x13-inch dish. Cube the bread and spread it in the dish. Pour the custard over, press down to soak, and let sit 10 minutes (or refrigerate overnight).
  3. Bake 35-40 minutes until golden, puffed, and set in the center. Let rest 5 minutes.
  4. Slice into 6 squares and serve warm with maple syrup and berries.

Notes

If you plan to soak this overnight, cover and refrigerate up to 12 hours. Baked from cold, it may need an extra 5 minutes in the oven. The center should read around 175°F (80°C) on an instant-read thermometer if you want to be precise.
