“Let’s make a high protein Easter breakfast for the whole family,” Bec said in his TikTok video.

“I call it baking French toast. It’s 292 calories, including the toppings, and it’s so delicious.

In a bowl, she added three eggs, 150 ml of almond milk, half a teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of ground cinnamon.

Next, cut the bundle of hot rolls in half and place the bottom halves in a baking dish.

Pour half of the egg mixture over the buns, then place the top half on top. Pour the rest of the mixture on top.

Sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon on top.
