BATTER

  • 3 Tbsp cornstarch (to make the batter get crispy)
  • 1/2 cup almond milk (or oat, soy, coconut milk)
  • 2 tsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/8 tsp black salt (kala namak) for adding an eggy flavor // or use sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 Tbsp ripe banana, mashed (can't be omitted if you don't want subtle banana flavour)
  • 1 dash turmeric, ground for yellow colour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • 1 Tbsp nutritional yeast optional

BREAD

  • nut butters
  • fresh fruit apples, strawberries, blue berries, raspberries, bananas, etc)
  • whipped cream

Instructions
 

MAKE THE BATTER

  • Mix the cornstarch in a shallow bowl or pyrex container, add in the dairy-free milk and whisk together. Mix thoroughly so there are no clumps.
  • Add in the rest of the batter ingredients and whisk together to combine.

COAT

  • Slice thick slices of sourdough bread and them them soak in the batter for 20-30 seconds. It should be so soggy that the bread falls apart, but should be thoroughly coated. If the batter is not getting absorbed well, press down on the bread with a fork in the batter to help the bread soak up the batter like a sponge.

COOK

  • Add butter (vegan) or margarine to a hot skillet. Cook for 2-5 minutes or more, until the bottom is golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-5 minutes or more until both sides are golden brown.

SERVE

  • Serve with so many great options, nut butters and fresh fruit go so well with french toast!
