INGREDIENTS
2 slices Whole Wheat Bread (80g total)
1 Whole Egg (50g)
2 Egg Whites (66g total)
0.75 cup Low-Fat Cottage Cheese (170g)
0.25 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk (60g)
1 tbsp Coconut Oil (14g)
0.5 tsp Vanilla Bean Extract (2g)
0.5 tsp Cinnamon
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with coconut oil.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whole egg, egg whites, low-fat cottage cheese, and unsweetened almond milk until smooth.
Stir in the vanilla bean extract and cinnamon until fully incorporated.
Cut the whole wheat bread into cubes or smaller pieces and evenly distribute them in the prepared baking dish.
Pour the egg and cottage cheese mixture over the bread pieces, pressing gently so the bread absorbs the liquid.
Allow the mixture to sit for 5-10 minutes so the bread soaks up the flavors.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden and the custard is set.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
