Preheat a non-stick pan or griddle over medium heat. Spray with avocado oil.
Dip each piece of bread into the egg mixture, flipping it to coat completely Let it soak in a bit. Transfer it to the pan.
Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with all 6 slices of bread.
Top with the berry chia jam, powdered sugar, and more maple syrup. Enjoy!

Notes

Toppings: Feel free to omit the chia jam and simply add butter, powdered sugar, or maple syrup! Fresh fruit or nut butter would also be delicious.

Protein powder: Any type of protein powder will work - either plain or vanilla flavored.

Storage: Store leftover protein french toast in an airtight container in the fridge. Microwave for 30-60 seconds to reheat as needed.
