I am a huge fan of Powercake's Blog (http://powercakes.net). One of the things I love about her is she always talks about "treat" meals rather than "cheat" meals so this is the perfect option for a big Sunday morning "treat" Power breakfast! Inspired by Kasey at Powercakes! Hope you like it!

Pumpkin Power Bread French Toast 


For the Power Bread...

Ingredients:

        Dry

• Vanilla Protein Powder, 1 cup (around 4 scoops)


• Coconut flour, 1/4 cup


• Baking soda, 1 tsp.


• Baking Powder, 1 tsp.


• Cinnamon, 1 tbs.


• Cloves, 2 tsp.


• Ginger, 2 tsp.


• Raisins, 1/4 cup


• Dash of Salt

       Wet 

• Vanilla, 2 tsp.


• Eggs, 2 whole


• Egg whites, 4


• Pumpkin puree, 3/4 cup

Directions: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Combine the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add in your wet ingredients. Blend the mix with a hand mixture for 2-3 minutes. Pour the batter into a loaf pan sprayed with olive oil. Bake for 30 minutes. Times may vary slightly. Let cool, slice, and enjoy, or....make your French Toast!

For the French Toast: 

Ingredients:

• 1 egg white


• Splash of unsweetened Almond Breeze (under  a tbs.)


• 1/2 tsp. cinnamon


• 3/4 tsp. vanilla


• Your pumpkin bread

Directions: Once your loaf has cooled, slice the bread into thin slices (the thinner the slices, the better it will cook). Whisk together the egg, Almond Breeze, cinnamon, and vanilla in a shallow dish or plate. Spray a skillet with olive oil spray and turn to medium high heat. When the spray starts to melt a bit, dip your bread into the egg mixture to cover both sides and place on the skillet. Flip the bread when the pan starts to sizzle a bit. When the egg mixture starts to brown on both sides your French toast is done! Serve with banana slices and a drizzle of peanut flour thinned out with water.
