Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 thick slices of brioche or challah bread (plant-based)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup almond milk (plant-based)
  • 1 teaspoon natural vanilla extract (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (natural)
  • 2 tablespoons plant-based butter
  • Maple syrup (natural), for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a wide mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, almond milk (plant-based), natural vanilla extract (natural), and ground cinnamon (natural) until smooth and well combined to create the custard base.
  2. Soak the Bread: Dip each slice of bread gently into the batter, allowing it to absorb without becoming soggy. Turn to coat both sides evenly for a saturated yet firm slice.
  3. Heat the Pan: Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt a small amount of plant-based butter to ensure crisping and prevent sticking.
  4. Cook the French Toast: Place soaked bread slices onto the hot pan and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and slightly crusty, flipping carefully.
  5. Serve Warm: Transfer cooked French Toast to plates, drizzle generously with maple syrup (natural), and add favorite garnishes if desired. Serve immediately for best texture and taste.

Notes

  • Choose thick slices of bread like brioche or challah (plant-based) for the best absorption and texture.
  • Quickly dip bread slices to avoid over-soaking and sogginess.
  • Use medium heat for perfect crispy outside and fully cooked inside.
  • Whisk batter fresh before dipping bread for optimal texture.
  • Use a non-stick pan for easier cooking and less fat needed.
