Vegan French Toast

This recipe takes only 10 minutes using everyday ingredients. You won’t miss the eggs at all in this delicious weekend morning breakfast. A secret ingredient makes these French toast incredibly crisp, thick, and perfect!

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsweetened soy milk (or other non-dairy milk)
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon ground flaxseeds
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 teaspoons pure maple syrup
• 1 teaspoon vanilla
• 6-8 slices thick-sliced quality bread, such as ciabatta or french
• 2-3 tablespoons vegan butter or coconut oil for frying
• For serving: maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit

Instructions

• In a shallow bowl, wide enough to hold a piece of bread, whisk together the soy milk, cornstarch, ground flaxseeds, baking powder, cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla.
• Add a little bit of vegan butter/coconut oil to a pan over medium-high heat and melt. Whisk the batter again right before dipping bread, as the cornstarch will settle to the bottom of the bowl. 
• Dip each side of the bread in the batter and let soak for about 10 seconds, then add the bread to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Add more vegan butter/oil to the pan as needed in between pieces of bread. 
• Serve with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruit, if desired. 

Notes

1. May use any kind of non-dairy milk, such as soy, coconut, almond, cashew, or oat milk.
2. For the gluten-free vegan french toast, use gluten-free bread.
3. This recipe does not freeze well and is best served fresh.
