The Best Vegan French Toast Recipe!
I’ve tried a ton of vegan French toast recipes and could NEVER nd one that was as
good as the original…so I created my own. AND OH BUDDY is this French toast SO
GOOD even without the eggs! This is my go-to weekend breakfast for when we really
want to treat ourselves. ?
This is a recipe that I’ve been meaning to post for years now! Seeing as French toast is
one of my all time favorite breakfast dishes, I gured that it was time I created a
vegan version. I’ve tried a quite a few vegan French toast recipes that make things
extra complicated with hard to nd ingredients, so I really wanted to keep this recipe
simple.
The hardest part about making French toast vegan is replacing the egg. In most baked
goods, it’s easy to replace an egg with applesauce, banana or several other things. But
that doesn’t quite work here.
Instead, we’re replacing the egg with ground axseed. It works to kind of stick to the
outside of the bread and give that nice thick texture to the cooked toast.
Ingredients
Vegan French toast requires just a handful of simple ingredients. Here’s what you’ll
need:
Ground axseed. In our vegan French toast, this is the ingredient that mimics the
egg that regular French toast uses to create the crustiness on the bread.
Non dairy milk. Use whatever non dairy milk you like best.
Cinnamon + nutmeg. Warm spices that make this French toast taste incredible!
Vanilla. For even more delicious avor!
Salt. Brings out the cinnamon and nutmeg avors.
Bread. I recommend using a thick-cut bread. Challah or brioche bread work great
because they’re nice and uffy but you’ll want to make sure to nd vegan versions
of them. More details on the best bread, below.
Toppings. Don’t forget the fun toppings! The options are endless – fresh fruit,
powdered sugar, vegan butter, maple syrup and/or almond butter are all yummy
choices.
How to Make This Vegan French Toast Recipe
Vegan French toast is made just like regular French toast, but without the eggs. The
milk is easily replaced with any preferred non dairy milk (I typically use almond milk
because it’s always in my fridge) and for this particular recipe, we’re replacing the egg
with a ax egg of sorts. French toast needs a bit of a binding agent that sticks to the
outside of the bread and solidi es as it cooks (these are all very untechnical terms).
1 Start this recipe by combining the milk and ground axseed together in a shallow
bowl. Let this mixture sit and thicken for about 5 minutes.
2 Next, add all other ingredients to the axseed mixture. No matter what I do, I nd
combining the cinnamon and nutmeg into the liquid rather dif cult. If you whisk
for a good few minutes, it’ll incorporate a decent bit. Then I usually add in a little
more cinnamon midway through dipping the bread into the mixture.
3 Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat.
4 Lightly dip the slices of bread in the milk mixture so that the bread is just covered
on each side (NOT soaked).
5 Cook the bread in the skillet for about 4 minutes on each side or until golden
brown.
6 Once done, top with syrup, fruit, and a dusting of powdered sugar and ENJOY!
Best Bread for Vegan French Toast

The kind of bread you choose for this French toast recipe REALLY matters; even
more than for the average French toast recipe. Do NOT use fresh, soft white bread
for this recipe. You can make it work for traditional French toast that has egg in it,
BUT it does not work well for this vegan French toast. You want slightly tougher
bread that will hold up once dipped in the liquid. You’ll want a bread that is roughly
the thickness and texture of potato bread or challah bread. You can also use softer
bread that has gone a bit stale which is what I used here.
Tips
When I make traditional French toast, I let the bread soak up a lot of the liquid. DO
NOT do that with this vegan French toast recipe. For best results, lightly dip each
side of the bread into the milk mixture, so that it is fully covered, but not
completely soaked through.
Leftover vegan French toast will keep fresh in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in
the freezer for up to 2 months. If you’re planning to keep your French toast in the
refrigerator, you can store it in an airtight container or zip-top baggie. To store
French toast in the freezer, wrap the slices individually in plastic wrap or separate
the slices with parchment paper, then place all slices in a gallon size freezer bag.
You can reheat French toast in the toaster oven. It cooks up wonderfully crunchy
and golden brown. For French toast that has been frozen, you’ll want to add about
1-2 minutes more to the toasting time. It also works well to reheat French toast in
a skillet or on a griddle.
Toppings
How do you like to dress up your French toast? I’m a big fan of a little fruit and lots of
maple syrup. I start with a little bit and then add more as I see t. So, in other words, I
keep the syrup RIGHT next to my plate :) Some other topping options are:
sliced almonds or chopped pecans
a sprinkle of granola
nut butter
banana slices
shredded coconut
jam
powdered sugar
non dairy whipped cream
vegan butter
I’m really excited for you to try this recipe! Please let me know how you like and what
kind of bread you used. I’m always experimenting with different kinds of bread and
how they affect the nal outcome.

instructions
1 In a large shallow dish, whisk together the ground axseed and milk. Let
sit for 5 minutes so the axseed can thicken.
2 Whisk milk mixture again before adding in the cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla
extract, and salt. Whisk lightly until fully combined. In my experience, the
cinnamon is hard to combine so I usually add a little extra in midway
through dipping the bread.
3 Over medium heat, spray a large skillet with cooking spray.
4 Lightly dip the slices of bread in the milk mixture so that the bread is just
covered on each side but not soaked. Do not let the bread sit in the milk
mixture of any amount of time.
5 Cook the bread in the skillet for ~4 minutes on each side or until a nice
golden brown.
6 Once done, top with syrup, fruit, and a dusting of powdered sugar and
ENJOY!!

Sorry this didn’t work out for you! I make this on a regular basis and the type of
bread really matters for this particular recipe because of the lack of egg. You
need thicker dough like a sourdough or something that is just a tiny bit stale. Again so
sorry!
HOLLY — DECEMBER 12, 2018 @ 11:37 AM REPLY
Literally the best vegan French toast I’ve made, and I’ve made many! Most
vegan versions end up soggy or stick to the pan. But this recipe had neither
issue… even my skeptical mother in law enjoyed it, which is saying a lot!! Will be sure to
make this one again!

Just made this for my son. He really enjoyed it. I used I plain white bread. A
little stale. I didn’t have to add more cinnamon. Other than that, I followed
recipe exactly. Thx for sharing.

What speci c bread did you use? Want to make sure I start out on the right
foot!
BRITA — M A R C H 1 9, 2 0 1 9 @ 1 0 : 4 5 A M REPLY
I’ve used quite a few different breads for this. I got for something that is
naturally a drier type of bread similar to a loaf of french bread. A lot of
breads that are traditionally used for french toast are not vegan such as challah or
brioche. Plain sandwich bread typically does NOT work very well

I have tried sooo many vegan french toast recipes and this is by far the best
one! I used “neat egg” instead of ax meal with an original avored soy milk on
some old sour dough. Thank you so much for the tip to lightly coat the bread…. every
other time I have made vegan french toast I have soaked it in the mixture and it has
stuck HORRIBLY! This time it came out perfect ? My very picky husband even enjoyed
it!

First saw this on Instagram and was a little skeptical on how it would turn out.
But once I tried it me and my mom were amazed. I used the usual multi grain
bread I always buy and it was the perfect bread for this. The texture resembles really
close to an egg but if you would like a more “eggy” avor I recommend adding a bit of
nutritional yeast or anything you’d like to make it more “eggy”. I haven’t tried that yet so
hopefully it doesn’t mess up the recipe. Good luck!

SO GLAD that you liked it! Great tip about adding nutritional yeast…just

Just made this for my husband and I for breakfast! It’s absolutely delicious ?
My only complaint it it was sticking a little to the pan…. How can I stop this
form happening? What spray would you recommend? X
BRITA — N OV E M B E R 2 3 , 2 0 1 9 @ 8 : 5 6 P M REPLY
Yay! So glad that you all liked it! Mine de nitely stuck too. I just kept the
pan well greased with cooking spray and you can also use a little bit of
coconut oil/ vegan butter!

Hi Brita, Do you know now much ground chia seed I would use in this recipe to replace
the axseed (I’m allergic to it).
BRITA — DECEMBER 16, 2019 @ 9:28 PM REPLY
You can swap it out for an equal amount of ground chia seeds!

Does texas bread work as well for this recipe?
BRITA — F E B R UA RY 6 , 2 0 2 0 @ 7 : 5 1 A M REPLY
that would work well! You just want to make sure it’s a little stale and
NOT super soft in the middle or else the bread just gets too soggy

BRITA — M AY 1 1 , 2 0 2 0 @ 1 0 : 5 8 A M REPLY
hmmmm. I’m honestly not sure. I’m inclined to say that you could replace
the apple sauce with about 3 eggs but I’m not 100% sure that would be
the proper conversion

First time making it, worked really well! We didn’t have thick bread just the
regular slices of whole wheat bread and we had unsweetened soy milk on
hand but it still turned out delicious! I’ve been missing French toast so much
and it’s so wonderful to nd an easy vegan recipe that’s just as fast to whip up as the egg
version. Thank you for the recipe!

VALERIE — M AY 1 1 , 2 0 2 0 @ 5 : 5 5 P M REPLY
I just made a variation on this recipe (using what I had on hand) and it came
out beautifully! I found that the real key to success for me was resisting my
urge to ip early- it just peels the toasted edge off. Wonderful recipe, thank you!
★★★★★
ROLANDA — AU G U ST 1 1 , 2 0 2 0 @ 5 : 3 7 P M REPLY
Recipe is not bad I would just add some type of sweetener to give the toast an
extra sweetness internally but other than that it had the right amount of salt
avor and crisp from frying.

SHANNON — AU G U ST 1 6 , 2 0 2 0 @ 8 : 4 6 A M REPLY
My local store has ground axseeds, but not axseed meal. Many websites say
they are the same thing but one website says axseed meal is the remnants
after axseeds are pressed for oil, while ground axseeds are ground whole axseeds.
Do you know if either will work for this recipe? Thank you
BRITA — AU G U ST 1 7, 2 0 2 0 @ 1 2 : 3 0 P M REPLY
I’ve used both but more often than not have been using GROUND
axseed meal. I updated that in the recipe card
