Vegan French Toast with Maple Syrup

Ingredients

• 8 slices bread
• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 cup almond milk
• 2 tablespoons ground flaxseed
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch nutmeg
• 1 cup maple syrup
• 1 cup fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of ground flaxseed with 6 tablespoons of water. Stir well and let sit for 5 minutes to thicken.

2. 2

   In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of almond milk, the thickened flaxseed mixture, 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a pinch of nutmeg until smooth.

3. 3

   Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat (about 350°F). Lightly grease with oil or vegan butter.

4. 4

   Dip each slice of bread into the batter, ensuring both sides are well-coated. Allow excess batter to drip off.

5. 5

   Place the coated bread slices onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.

6. 6

   Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and keep warm in a low oven (around 200°F) while you cook the remaining slices.

7. 7

   Serve the French toast hot, drizzled with maple syrup and topped with fresh fruit.
