Equipment

  • serrated knife
  • wide dish
  • wisk or fork
  • nonstick pan
  • spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 8-10 slices thick bread* like french, sourdough, or brioche
  • 1 cup Just Egg
  • 3/4 cup plant milk of choice I prefer thicker milks like oat or cashew
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or 1.5 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/8 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg optional
  • 2-3 tablespoons plant-based butter, divided for pan frying

Optional Toppings

  • maple syrup
  • fresh fruit (or jam)
  • plant-based whipped cream
  • vegan butter
  • nuts (or nut butter)

Instructions
 

  • If using whole bread loaf, use serrated knife to cut bread into 3/4 inch - 1 inch thick slices.
  • Combine Just Egg, plant milk, syrup (or brown sugar), cinnamon, nutmeg, sea salt, and vanilla in shallow, wide dish. Use wisk or fork to combine custard.
  • Place sliced bread into dish (typically I can fit about 3-4 slices at a time). Allow bread to soak for about 1 minute. Then flip slices to other side, and soak for 1 more minute.
  • While soaking second side, heat nonstick pan on low-medium heat. Place 1-1.5 tablespoons of butter in pan. Use spatula to spread melting butter around pan, being careful not to let it burn.
  • Remove bread from custard, allowing excess custard to drip off. Place in pan.
  • Cooking on low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes on first side until golden brown, checking after 90 seconds to avoid burning.
  • Flip to second side. Cook for about 2 additional minutes, checking again after 90 seconds (second side tends to cook more quickly than first).
  • Remove first batch of French toast from pan. Place in warm oven or microwave, covered, to slow cooling.
  • Let pan cool enough to wipe with paper towel to remove brown debris. Add more butter and repeat.
  • Top French Toast with fresh fruit, butter, maple syrup, or other toppings. Enjoy!
