Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices Thick slices of vegan Challah bread
- 1.5 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 3 tablespoons Chickpea flour
- 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons Vegan butter or coconut oil
- 1 cup Fresh berries or maple syrup for serving (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, chickpea flour, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
Pour the mixture into a shallow dish, such as a pie pan, to allow for easy dipping of the bread.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegan butter or coconut oil and let it melt and spread evenly across the skillet.
Dip each slice of vegan Challah bread into the almond milk mixture, allowing it to soak for about 10 seconds on each side, ensuring it's fully coated but not too soggy.
Carefully place the soaked bread slices onto the heated skillet. Cook each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy.
Add more vegan butter or coconut oil to the skillet as needed and repeat the process for the remaining slices of bread.
Serve the French toast hot, topped with fresh berries or additional maple syrup, if desired.
