Instructions
Date Paste:

- Pour in 1 tbsp of hot water and blend. You want a paste consistency so add more water if needed.1-2 tbsp Hot Water
French Toast:
- Grab a slice of bread and spread on a thin layer of the paste. Repeat until you make a sandwich of 4 slices.8 Slices Seeded Bread
- This recipe makes two servings so use enough paste for both sandwiches. (I like to separate the date paste in half and then use just that amount for each French toast sandwich.)
- Once you have your two sandwiches, cut off the crusts and set aside. You don’t want to waste those!
- Make your French toast mixture by mixing together the egg, milk, and cinnamon in a flat dish.1 Large Brown Egg, 60 ml (0.25 cups) Protein Plant Milk, 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
- Dip each of the sandwiches in there and coat evenly. Don’t leave for too long otherwise it will get soggy.
- Add to a parchment lined air fryer basket. Repeat for the crusts as well. Pour over any remaining mixture. No wastage around here!
- Air fry at 400° for 10 mins, flipping everything over halfway.
Sticky Toffee Sauce:
- In a blender, add in your yogurt, milk, and protein powder. Blend until smooth. This will be your “heavy cream” for the sauce.28 g (0.25 cups) Nonfat Greek Yogurt, 15 ml (1 tbsp) Protein Plant Milk, 7 g (1 tbsp) Unflavored Protein Powder
- In a small pot, add in your butter on low heat and melt. Then add in the brown sugar and mix the two together.7 g (0.5 tbsp) Unsalted Butter, 32 g (8 tsp) Zero Calorie Brown Sugar
- Then pour in your “heavy cream” and cook until nice and creamy with no lumps.
- Finally, add in your coconut sugar to bring in that rich brown color.10 g (2 tsp) Coconut Sugar
To Serve:
- Poke holes with a toothpick into each of your French toast sandwiches to allow the sauce to seep through.
- Add half of the sauce to each French toast and spread. Then add 9g of Cool Whip to each.18 g (0.25 cups) Reduced Fat Whipped Cream
- Finally, finish it off with some flaky sea salt and enjoy your beautiful creation!Flaky Sea Salt
