Ingredients

  • ½ cup full fat coconut milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened soy or almond milk
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes
  • 1 ½ teaspoons maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon kala namak
  • 2 tablespoons vegan butter, or as needed
  • 4 to 6 thick crusty bread slices (slightly stale bread works great)

Instructions

  • Whisk the coconut milk, soy or almond milk, cornstarch, nutritional yeast, maple syrup, cinnamon, vanilla, and kala namak together in a medium bowl.
  • Melt about a tablespoon of vegan butter in a nonstick skillet set over medium heat.
  • Dip one side of a bread slice into the batter, then flip and dip to coat the other side. Be careful not to oversaturate it, or it could fall apart.
  • Transfer the bread slice to the hot pan. You can dip a few more slices and cook them at the same time, as long as you don't crowd the pan.
  • Cook the French toast for about 5 minutes, until lightly browned on the bottom, then flip and cook about 5 minutes more.
  • Transfer the cooked French toast slices to a place as they finish cooking.
  • Repeat until all of the bread and batter have been used, adding butter or to the skillet between batches.
  • Serve with maple syrup, vegan butter, and any of your favorite toppings.
