Notes
- I use my homemade high protein lower carb bread. You can use any sort of bread but to make high protein french toast, you'll need a high protein bread.
- Make sure your bread sticks are thick enough.
- Use one or two days old bread so it has dried up a little. It will absorb the custard sauce better and not break apart.
- You can use your preferred sweetener or sugar.
- You can replace almond milk with your preferred milk.
- Add more stevia if you want it sweeter.
