Description
A delicious and easy recipe for Vegan French Toast, perfect for a plant-based breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 8 slices of bread (preferably thick-cut, like sourdough or whole grain)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil (for frying)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
- Fresh fruit (for serving, optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the almond milk, ground flaxseed, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and flour until smooth. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes to thicken slightly.
- Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
- Dip each slice of bread into the batter, ensuring both sides are well-coated but not overly soggy. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
- Place the coated bread slices onto the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Add more coconut oil as needed for subsequent batches.
- Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and serve warm with maple syrup and fresh fruit, if desired.
Notes
- For added flavor, mix in a tablespoon of sugar or a splash of orange juice to the batter.
- Try using different types of bread, such as brioche or gluten-free bread, to suit your dietary preferences.
