Maple-Glazed Vegan French Toast

Nothing says 'good morning' quite like the aroma of cinnamon and maple syrup wafting through the kitchen. Our Maple-Glazed Vegan French Toast is here to transform your breakfast into a heartwarming treat that's as delightful to eat as it is easy to make. With golden-brown slices of dairy-free, eggless bread soaked in a rich, cinnamon-infused batter, and topped with a luscious maple glaze, it's a plant-based twist on a classic that'll please crowds and taste buds alike!

• 1 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
• 1/4 cup chickpea flour
• 1/4 cup pure maple syrup, plus more for glazing
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
• 6 slices of thick-cut, sturdy bread (like sourdough or Texas toast)
• Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)
• Sliced strawberries for serving (optional)
• Non-dairy butter or oil for cooking

1. In a shallow dish, whisk together almond milk, chickpea flour, 1/4 cup maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
2. Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little non-dairy butter or oil to coat the bottom.
3. Dip each slice of bread into the batter, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side. Allow the excess to drip off before transferring to the skillet.
4. Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
5. After cooking all the slices, stack the French toast on plates. Drizzle with additional maple syrup and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
6. If desired, dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh sliced strawberries.
7. Serve hot and enjoy your blissful vegan breakfast!
