French toast
Serves 4
- 8 slices sturdy bread, like a French loaf or brioche (day old / stale works best)
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup Just Egg
- ½ cup non-dairy milk (almond creamer is our go-to here)
- Coconut oil or vegan butter
- Your favorite toppings (maple syrup, berries, powdered sugar...)
Equipment
01 / 04
Dry the bread
If your bread isn’t stale, lay it out on a baking sheet overnight to dry or bake it for 10 to 20 minutes in a 300°F oven until stiff and dry. Using stale or dried bread will help soak up the custard while avoiding soggy French toast.
02 / 04
Whisk the custard
Whisk together the Just Egg, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon and milk in a wide shallow dish.
03 / 04
Soak the bread
Soak the bread slices in the custard mixture for 15 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
04 / 04
Fry the toast
Bring a nonstick skillet to medium-low heat and brush with a light coating of coconut oil or butter. Use a fork or tongs to pick up each slice of bread from the soaking dish, letting any excess custard mixture drip off back into the dish. Cook each slice for about 2 minutes on each side until browned. Serve immediately, with your favorite toppings.
