The Best Vegan French Toast
The best vegan french toast recipe we've ever tried!
Equipment
- Blender or Food Processor
Ingredients
French Toast
- 1 loaf french bread
- 1 banana very ripe
- 1/2 cup raw cashews (if you only have roasted cashews, you can boil them for 20 minutes)
- 3 cups oat milk or your favorite non-dairy milk
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp flax meal
- 2 tbsp aquafaba liquid from can of chickpeas
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
French Toast Topping
- 1 cup walnuts coarsely chopped
- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Coat a baking pan with cooking spray or vegan butter.
- Slice bread loaf into 16 pieces, and arrange on baking pan. Layer them like tiles on a roof.
- In a blender or food processor add 1 banana, 1/2 cup cashews, 3 cups oat milk, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 2 tbsp flax meal, 2 tbsp aquafaba, and 1 tsp vanilla. Blend or process until smooth and creamy.
- Pour mixture over bread. Try to make sure all bread gets coated. Let it rest for 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile make the topping. In a bowl add 1 cup chopped walnuts, 2 tbsp vegan butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and 1/4 tsp nutmeg. Mix well with a fork.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees.
- After bread mixture has rested for 15 minutes, top the bread with the walnut topping. Distribute evenly.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. Top french toast with syrup if you like (it's plenty good without it) and enjoy!
