Equipment
- 1 8x8 Baking Pan
Ingredients
- 1/2 Loaf Whole Grain Sourdough About 360 grams
- 1 cup Skim Milk I use Fairlife for added protein
- 3 Eggs
- 1 scoop Vanilla Whey Protein Powder
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
- 1 Large Green Apple or fruit of choice, about 1 cup
- 1/4 cup Pumpkin Seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper.
- To an immersion blender cup or bowl, add your milk, eggs, protein powder, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt. Blend until smooth and set aside.
- Cut your sourdough bread into bite-size pieces. Toss the bread cubes into your 8x8 baking pan in an even layer.
- Dice your apple or other fruit into small pieces. Add to the baking dish on top of the bread and toss lightly with your hands to mix.
- Take your milk & egg mixture and pour it evenly across the whole baking dish, making sure to get all of the bread wet. Use the back of a spatula to press down on the bread as necessary to help it soak up the liquid evenly.
- Sprinkle your pumpkin seeds on top. Place in the oven to bake for 45-50 minutes. The casserole is done when you press on the center of the casserole with the back of a spoon and it doesn't seep any of the liquid.
