Save this super EASY & TASTY recipe for your next weekend breakfast! Can anyone guess the secret ingredient?🤔Â
Â
… yep, it’s the brine (aka “Aquafaba”) from a can of humble chickpeas!Â
Â
(*IMPORTANT note: make sure you use a protein powder that you LOVE, as the majority of the sweetness & flavour comes from it. I used @macr0mike snickerdoodle protein powder because the sweet caramel cinnamon-ness of it goes so well in this French toast recipe!
