Not even kidding, I made this Pita French Toast 2 days in a row and want it again tomorrow. It really is that good!

Can you make French Toast with Pita Bread?

Very much yes, you can make French Toast with pita bread, and it turns out amazing; Probably even better than the regular French Toast in my (and husband's) opinion! It's really easy to whip up, and this recipe makes a really nice high protein breakfast with leftover pita bread.

Ingredients for High Protein Pita Bread French Toast

This pita bread French Toast is made protein powder instead of sugar, a lot of egg white and also almond milk for a healthy breakfast recipe. A really good recipe for leftover pita bead too.

  • Pita Bread - I used Joseph's Original Pita Bread here
  • Vanilla Protein Powder - I used Quest Nutrition Vanilla Protein Powder for this recipe
  • Unsweetened Almond Milk
  • Egg
  • Egg Whites
  • A bit of Ground Cinnamon

How to make French Toast with Leftover Pita Bread:

This recipe for French Toast with leftover pita bread really is super easy to make for breakfast. Here's what it takes:

  1. Make the egg mixture: Blend the egg, egg whites, milk, protein powder and cinnamon in a blender.
  1. Pour mixture into large wide bowl or pot (wide enough to fit pita).
  1. Cut pita crosswise (to open like a book).
  1. Soak pita in egg mixture, gently flipping to soak each side. About 30 sec each side.
  2. Heat nonstick pan on medium, spray with oil spray.
  1. Place pita on pan and cook 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook other side for another 2 minutes.

Tips for Pita French Toast with Protein Powder

This pita French Toast recipe with protein powder really is easy, but here's some tips to get it right.

  • Use a blender to make the batter to get rid of protein powder lumps or they'll just stick on to the bread.
  • Cut the pita bread crosswise (to open like a book) and soak all sides in egg mixture so the flavor absorbs well.
  • Actually soak the pita bread for a few minutes so the flavor absorbs.
  • Use medium-low heat so the high protein pita bread French Toast don't burn - this can happen quite easily with the protein powder.
  • Be gentle when you flip.
    The bread should come off the pan very easily!

Toppings for this Leftover Pita French Toast

You can go for a lot of topping options for this leftover pita French Toast, but here's my favorite:

  • Honey + Powdered Sugar (I use the sugar free one from Lakanto; code HAYLSKITCHEN gives a discount) + Strawberries

Here's some other good ones to try:

  • Maple Syrup
  • Butter
  • Chocolate Syrup
  • Fruit

Some alternate ingredients for Healthy Pita French Toast

This recipe uses Almond Milk, but use regular milk instead of almond milk if needed. Any other non-dairy milk also works.

To skip the protein powder, use zero calorie monkfruit sweetener instead. I use Lakanto; The code HAYLSKITCHEN gives you a discount on this. 

For a low cab option: Use Joseph's Flax Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Pita.
