Vegan French Toast

  • Preparation Time5 mins
  • Cooking Time45 mins
  • Serves4
  • DifficultyEasy
1 1/4 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/2 cup soy yoghurt
2 tablespoons cornflour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 tablespoons refined coconut oil, melted
One 1-pound day-old Italian-style loaf, ends discarded and loaf cut into 3/4-inch-thick slices
Warm pure maple syrup, for serving

Set a baking sheet on an oven rack and preheat to 95°C.

Blend the almond milk, soy yogurt, cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon and vanilla in a blender until combined. Transfer to a casserole dish or glass pie plate.

Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, swirling the frying pan to coat the surface. Place 3 slices of bread in the milk-yoghurt mixture, let soak for about 1 minute per side, then carefully lay the slices in the frying pan. Cook, undisturbed, until browned and crisp, 2 to 4 minutes per side (adjust the heat as needed). Serve immediately or transfer to the rack in the oven to keep warm. Repeat with the remaining oil, bread and milk-soy mixture. Serve with maple syrup.
