Stack of vegan French toast drizzled with maple syrup, topped with fresh strawberries and blueberries.
Ingredients
- 4 slices of thick sandwich bread (vegan and certified gluten-free)
- 1/2 cup of plant-based milk (almond, certified gluten-free oat or soy)
- 2 tbsp of chickpea flour (or other gluten-free flour)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup (or other liquid sweetener)
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- A pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp coconut oil or vegan margarine for cooking
- Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries) for garnish
- Additional maple syrup for serving
Preparation steps
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the plant-based milk, chickpea flour, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon and salt until smooth and evenly combined.
- Heat the coconut oil or vegan margarine in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
- Dip each slice of bread into the liquid mixture, making sure it is well coated on both sides. Do not soak for too long to prevent the bread from disintegrating.
- Place the coated bread slices in the hot pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden and crisp.
- Serve immediately with fresh berries and a drizzle of additional maple syrup.
Chef’s tip
For an even tastier French toast, use slightly stale bread. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the dough to vary the flavors.
