You can't beat a classic! This vegan French toast tastes like the stuff you grew up eating, but is made with absolutely no eggs or dairy. Grab some maple syrup and dig in!
- 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)
-
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.
