Give your French toast a nutty spin with this recipe, which coats the classic dish with heart-healthy almonds. This morning meal packs a good amount of protein and fiber to get you going in the a.m.

- ⅓ cup unsweetened almond milk
- 2 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
