We love to eat French Toast! I was surprised to find so many different recipes for Vegan French toast. In this recipe, I added cinnamon to give this French toast more flavor and it turns out very moist. Sometimes I eat it without any toppings, but my favorites are unsweetened applesauce, fresh fruit, like berries or sliced peaches. I also enjoy putting a little maple syrup on the plate and dip my bites into the syrup. That gives me the flavor without drowning my breakfast in syrup and is a great way to start the day!

There are several different types of whole wheat bread that don’t contain oil or you can make your own. Gluten free bread may easily be substituted. Pick your favorite bread to suit you personal tastes. My dad always likes to use day-old bread for his French Toast.

Get Your Ingredients for Vegan Cinnamon French Toast:

• 1 1/4 cup vanilla oat milk or your favorite nondairy milk
• 1 Tbsp. ground flaxseed
• 1 tsp. cinnamon
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 1 tsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. vanilla
• 8 slices whole wheat bread

Making the Dipping Mixture:

Start with a wide, shallow bowl. Planet Oat Milk is my favorite, especially the vanilla flavor, as it does not contain any oil. Add 1 1/4 cup of oat milk.

Use one tablespoon of ground flaxseed. Always make sure you use ground flaxseed meal as whole flaxseed has a much different consistency.

Put in one teaspoon of baking powder.

Mix in1/4 cup of cornstarch, and one teaspoon of vanilla extract. Whisk until all lumps are gone.

Use a fork to dip your bread in the wet mixture, flipping the bread over so that the bread is covered on both sides. If you let it soak too long your bread may become too soggy.

Let’s Start Cooking:

I have a large nonstick pan I like to use. Heat the pan for several minutes prior to putting your bread in the pan. You can test the pan’s temperature by dropping in a couple drops of water. If they sizzle, your pan is ready. Add 2 to 3 slices of coated bread into the pan and cook them for at least 3 minutes before turning them over. If the bread sticks to the pan you may need to cook it a little longer. Use a spatula to turn the bread.

Cook the French Toast for another 3 minutes until it is a medium brown color. You will have a nice crispy outside and a soft, delicious inside. You are ready to serve with your favorite toppings.
