Recipe Notes and Modifications:
- I recommend the brand Pescience Select one for protein powder, for this recipe use the Vanilla Gourmet flavour!
- I love these baking dishes from amazon as they come with a lid and make storage easy!
- The brand of apple pie filling I used for macros was E.D. Smith
- You can use another high fiber low calorie bread, macros may differ. Little Big Bread can be bought at Costco, Safeway, Save on Foods, Walmart and Superstore.
- This French toast bake keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave or oven for best results.
- For more spice, you can add ¼ tsp of nutmeg or ginger to complement the cinnamon and allspice/cloves.
