SO HOW'D IT GO?
I just made this again for 2 nonvegan processed food junkies. They devoured it.
This is a really good, super quick recipe for a great tasting french toast. I've made this too many times to count for myself and my boyfriend, and most recently my parents who are not vegan, and they LOVED IT! :)
Wow, what a treat! ;)
Crispy on the outside and gewy on the inside... just like it should be.
Yum!
this was amazing! i never would have guessed it's vegan. definately a breakfast option if you're cooking for non-vegans.
I'm addicted! I used a small amount of vanilla with regular soymilk, and it turned out great. Tastes just like the french toast I remember! THANKS!
Finally!!!!! A vegan french toast that works!
I have tried probably 5 times now and each time it is soggy and nasty. But this time it worked and is delicious! I followed the suggestions by the reviewers here.
Here is what I did, I made the batter according to the recipe here. Using bread from the "outradiously big easy bread" recipe that I made in the bread machine a few days go, I cut 1" thick slices, seriously, like 1" thick! I dipped the pieces of bread in the batter but didn't let it soak in it, only for a second or two per side. I then put the bread into a pre-warmed (set to low-med heat) cast iron skillet (well seasoned) sprayed with cooking spray. I let it sit there and it took longer then regular frech toast. I flipped it until both sides were golden, and then took out.
I wasn't soggy at all, it was perfect, exactly like regular frech toast...better even becuase regular french toast tends to be a bit soggy. I put margarine on it, and ate it swimming in maple syrup...OMG so good! Thank you thank you. I had just about given up on vegan french toast, but I thought I would give it one last shot.
Thick bread slices is the key I think!
I was leery of trying this recipe because I've tried a couple others unsuccessfully. This one was great! I did cook them between medium and low which kept them from being soggy. I only used 1/2 tsp. sugar as we were putting syrup on them. Will make these again and again!
I fry mine in Earth Balance... good stuff!
Thanks for this base recipe. I quarter it & make breakfast just for me because my husband likes granola, not French toast for breakfast. I add the following: a little ener-g egg replacer, a little vanilla, a little almond extract, a few sprinkles of cloves & Jamaican allspice. Also I prefer agave nectar or maple syrup instead of sugar, but I don't know that it needs either since I'm going to put those on top :) The first time I used 100% whole wheat bread slices (yum) & this time I'm using sourdough since that's all I have.
This was great. It was nice to have French Toast again! I used 1 Tbsp. of whole wheat flour and 1 Tbsp. of ground flax, 1 cup of vanilla flavored almond milk, dash cinnamon, whole wheat bread and no sugar. I used other people's advice and stuck the french toast in the toaster oven to finish cooking it. Served it with sliced bannanas. Yummy!
