Ingredients
- 8 slices Whole wheat bread, preferably slightly stale
- 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or other plant-based milk)
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch (or arrowroot powder)
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon powder
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 1 tablespoon Coconut oil or vegan butter (for frying)
- 0 Optional toppings (fresh fruit, powdered sugar, syrup, etc.)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, ground flaxseed, cornstarch, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
Step 2
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the flaxseed to thicken and create a batter-like consistency.
Step 3
Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat, and lightly grease it with coconut oil or vegan butter.
Step 4
Dip one slice of whole wheat bread into the batter, making sure to coat both sides evenly. Allow any excess batter to drip off.
Step 5
Place the coated bread slice onto the preheated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy around the edges.
Step 6
Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining slices of bread, re-greasing the skillet as needed.
Step 7
Serve the French toast warm, topped with fresh fruit, powdered sugar, syrup, or any toppings of your choice.
