If you want something that has no flavor (you can add it to coffee, oatmeal, or smoothies and not taste it at all!) collagen protein is a great option.

PROTEIN FRENCH TOAST RECIPE
4 slices sprouted grain bread or whatever bread you prefer
1/4 cup egg whites (58 grams), can sub 1 whole egg or 1.5 fresh egg whites
1/4 cup 2% milk or whatever milk you prefer
1/2 cup Greek yogurt (125 grams)
1/4 cup vanilla protein powder (14 grams or 1/2 scoop)
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Add egg whites, milk, Greek yogurt, protein powder, and cinnamon to a blender or Nutribullet. Blend until well combined and creamy.

Transfer ‘protein egg mixture’ into a bowl. Dip each slice of bread in the protein egg mixture, ensuring each slice is soaked. Two slices of bread should absorb all of the protein egg mixture.

Lightly spray a non-stick cooking pan with non-aerosol cooking spray and heat over medium-low heat. Add soaked bread slices and cook for 2-3 minutes, flip, and cook for another 2 minutes or until the French toast is lightly browned and cooked through.

Serve with your favorite pancake toppings! I love a dollop of Greek yogurt, fresh berries, and a drizzle of maple syrup. Enjoy!

NOTES:
If you prefer a sweeter French toast, you can add some granulated or liquid sweetener to the protein egg mixture (maple syrup, monk fruit, and/or stevia would all be great options).
Sub in vanilla Greek yogurt for even more flavor!
