French Toast
- Total Time: 13 minutes
- Yield: 6-8 servings
- Diet: Low Lactose
Description
Light, fluffy, and satisfying dairy-free French toast made with almond milk-soaked bread. Perfect for a wholesome breakfast, can be made gluten-free.
Ingredients
- Good Quality Bread (6-8 slices, about 1-inch thick): brioche, challah, Texas toast, or a sturdy artisan loaf. Day-old bread is ideal.
- Unsweetened Almond Milk (1 cup / 240ml)
- Large Eggs (2)
- Granulated Sugar (2 tablespoons / 25g)
- Vanilla Extract (1 teaspoon / 5ml)
- Ground Cinnamon (1/2 teaspoon / 2.5ml)
- Pinch of Salt (1/8 teaspoon / 0.5g)
- Butter or Coconut Oil (1-2 tablespoons / 15-30g, for cooking): Use dairy-free butter or coconut oil.
Instructions
- Whisk the Batter: In a shallow dish, whisk together the almond milk, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined and slightly frothy. (2 minutes)
- Prepare Your Griddle or Skillet: Heat a large non-stick griddle or skillet over medium heat. Add 1-2 tablespoons of butter or coconut oil and swirl to coat the entire cooking surface. (2-3 minutes)
- Soak the Bread: Dip each slice of bread into the almond milk batter, allowing it to soak for about 15-30 seconds per side. The bread should be thoroughly moistened but not dripping or falling apart.
- Cook Until Golden: Carefully place the soaked bread slices onto the hot griddle. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until beautifully golden brown, puffed, and cooked through in the center.
- Serve Warm: Transfer your perfectly cooked French toast to a plate right away. If making a larger batch, keep cooked slices warm on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 200°F (95°C).
Notes
Optional Add-ins & Smart Swaps:
- Flavor Boosts: A pinch of nutmeg, a dash of almond extract, or a bit of orange zest can really brighten things up.
- Sweeteners: Swap granulated sugar for maple syrup, brown sugar, or your favorite sugar substitute if you prefer.
- Other Non-Dairy Milks: Oat milk or soy milk can be swapped for almond milk for a similar delicious result.
- Gluten-Free: Simply use your favorite sturdy gluten-free bread to make this a gluten-free French Toast Recipe with Almond Milk.
Notes on Quality & Freshness: For the best results, use fresh, large eggs. Ensure your almond milk is plain and unsweetened. Quality vanilla extract and fresh cinnamon make a noticeable difference in the final taste.
