Peanut butter & jelly sandwiches just got an upgrade.

Hugely popular in the US, peanut butter and jelly (we call it jam) is one of those infamous combinations that just works — like fish and chips, or salt and pepper.

As sandwich fillings go, it’s probably not that nutritious but sometimes you have to give in to a guilty pleasure, right?

In this super-simple recipe, Niall Kirkland takes the classic American duo to a whole new level. Why settle for a plain old PB & J sandwich, when you can make it into delicious, oozing French toast?

Oh, and thanks to the addition of our bestselling Impact Whey Protein and a couple of eggs, he’s boosted the protein content of this indulgent breakfast too. It’s a win-win.

Serves 2

Ingredients

Method

  1. First, add the milk and a scoop of vanilla Impact Whey Protein to a shaker and shake properly so the mixture is lump-free.
  2. Add this protein shake to a large bowl along with the eggs, salt, cinnamon, and baking powder. Mix thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
  3. Dip each of slice of bread in the egg mixture, ensuring all parts of the bread are covered and allowing enough time for the bread to soak up the moisture.
  4. Then, heat a small amount of coconut oil in a non-stick frying pan (roughly ½ a tablespoon between all four slices) and add the bread slices.
  5. Fry each slice for 2-3 minutes on each side or until the bread is slightly crispy on the outside and remove from the pan.
  6. Whilst the French toast is still warm, spread your peanut butter and jam onto one slice, then cover with a top slice to make a sandwich.
  7. Cut in half and dust with icing sugar to serve — then dig in!
