Egg Free French Toast
This easy Egg Free French Toast is sweet, lightly spiced with cinnamon, and perfectly golden, just like the real deal! With an egg allergy in the family, I decided to set out to make an egg free French Toast that the whole family can enjoy together. This one fits the bill!
Servings: 8 slices
Ingredients
- 2 cups milk
- 6 Tbsp cornstarch
- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2-3 Tbsp butter
- 6-10 slices thick-sliced bread (number of slices will depend on bread thickness – I usually get around 8 thick slices, or 10 for standard sandwich bread)
Instructions
- Preheat griddle to 350F, or heat a pan over medium heat.
- In a large, flat bottomed bowl, whisk together cornstarch, sugar, cinnamon, and 1 cup of the milk. Whisk until cornstarch is dissolved, scraping the bottom as necessary to prevent cornstarch from sticking.
- Once cornstarch is incorporated, stir in remaining milk and the vanilla. This will be the eggless French Toast batter.
- Melt 1-2 Tbsp butter on skillet.
- Dip one slice of bread into batter, and immediately flip to soak the other side. Do this step quickly (ie: don't allow to sit in the batter for too long), or your bread may become over-saturated. Immediately place battered bread onto skillet. Repeat with remaining slices.
- Cook each slice for 2-3 minutes on the first side, or until golden brown. Flip, and cook the other side for 2-4 minutes, or until golden brown (the first side seems to cook faster, since the griddle is freshly heated). Re-butter your skillet with each batch.
- Serve warm, with maple syrup and toppings of choice. We love ours with berries and whipped cream!
Notes
To make this egg free French Toast dairy free – substitute your favorite dairy-free milk in place of regular milk, and use dairy-free margarine in place of butter.
