Save this super EASY & TASTY recipe for your next weekend breakfast! Can anyone guess the secret ingredient?
… yep, it’s the brine (aka “Aquafaba”) from a can of humble chickpeas!
(*IMPORTANT note: make sure you use a protein powder that you LOVE, as the majority of the sweetness & flavour comes from it. I used @macr0mike snickerdoodle protein powder because the sweet caramel cinnamon-ness of it goes so well in this French toast recipe! My discount code is “amb-chen” if you guys want a discount on any @macr0mike products )
1 tin chickpeas (reserve 1/2 cup of the “aquafaba” brine)
1 scoop (40g) vegan protein powder (I used @macr0mike snickerdoodle)
4 slices sourdough bread (or bread of choice)
*Optional: cinnamon, maple syrup for sweetness, oil for cooking
Instructions
1. Drain the chickpeas and reserve the l starchy chickpea brine (aquafaba)
2. In a large flat bowl, mix 1/2 cup of aquafaba with the protein powder until no lumps remain. Optional you can also add in cinnamon & maple syrup if you want
3. Soak both sides of each bread slice in the mixture
4. Heat a non-stick fry pan on medium high heat. Optional you can add a bit of oil to coat. Fry each side of the French toast for 2 minutes until golden and flip.
