In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, ground flaxseed, nutritional yeast, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt until well combined.
Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes to allow the flaxseed to thicken slightly, creating a batter-like consistency.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegan butter or coconut oil.
Dip one slice of bread into the batter, coating both sides evenly but not soaking it to the point of breaking apart.
Place the coated bread onto the hot skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, or until golden brown. Flip and cook the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
Repeat with the remaining slices of bread, adding more vegan butter or oil to the skillet as needed.
Serve the French toast warm with your favorite toppings, such as fresh fruit, powdered sugar, maple syrup, or a dollop of vegan yogurt.
