Course Breakfast, Dessert
Cuisine American, French
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp flax seeds
  • 3 tbs water
  • 300 g tofu
  • 3 cups plant based milk - I used cashew as it’s extra creamy
  • ½ cup chickpea flour
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp pink salt - you can use any salt you prefer
  • 8 slices of bread - I used a seeded bloomer with a thick crust
  • Coconut oil or vegan butter to grease the pan with

Instructions

  1. In a small mixing bowl, mix together the flax seeds, chia seeds and water. Let stand for 10 minutes to let it develop its gel consistency. During this time, slice your bread, making sure they are about an inch thick.
  2. Add everything into a blender; the chia seeds and flax seed mixture, spices...etc. Blend everything together on high for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Until everything is well combined and the texture of the vegan egg custard is smooth.
  3. Pour the vegan egg custard into a shallow bowl, making sure it’s big enough for the bread you’ll be using.
  4. Heat a shallow pan on high heat and grease with vegan butter or coconut oil. Reduce to medium heat when you are ready to place the toast in the pan.
  5. Dip the toast into the vegan egg custard for about 15 seconds on each side.
  6. Fry the toast for about 1 - 2 minutes on each side, or until the desired texture is achieved. Repeat steps 5 and 6 until you’ve cooked your desired amount of French toast!
