Notes on Ingredients
- Milk: You can use any plant-milk here including almond, coconut, soy, cashew, oat, macadamia, etc.
- Bread: I love to use thick, fluffy, and hearty bread for french toast. Some of my favorites are sourdough bread, cinnamon raisin bread, or challah. You can also make your own vegan and gluten-free bread at home!
- Cornstarch: This makes this Easy Vegan French Toast get crispy and golden. Substitute 1:1 with potato starch or arrowroot powder.

How do you make Easy Vegan French Toast?
- In a large bowl, combine milk, cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup and cornstarch. Stir well with a whisk.
- Heat up a non-stick skillet on medium heat and add in the vegan butter.
- Dip a piece of bread in the batter until both sides are coated well and the bread is saturated. It should be covered, but not so soggy that it is falling apart.
- Place the soaked bread on the skillet. Flip after about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown.
- Repeat these steps for all 6 slices.
- Top with maple syrup and berries or any toppings of choice and enjoy!
- Step 1: First, in a bowl, combine the milk, maple syrup, cornstarch, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Step 2: Then, heat up a pan, add vegan butter, dip a piece of bread in the batter (soak each side) and place in the frying pan.
- Step 3: Cook each side of the French toast until golden brown, roughly 4 minutes. Repeat for all 6 pieces of toast.
- Step 4: Finally, top with berries, maple syrup, and any other toppings of choice.

Extra Helpful Tips
- Avoid cooking the french toast on high heat as it will burn the bread before it can get golden brown! Cook on medium heat.
- Don’t skip the cornstarch! It makes the bread crispy (without eggs or dairy!).
- Each side takes about 4 minutes to get golden so be patient!
- Use any kind of bread you’d like: sourdough, challah, cinnamon raisin, or gluten-free. You could even make-your-own bread!
How to Store
You can store it in the fridge in an airtight container for 1-2 days after and reheat on a frying pan for a couple minutes each side. However, French toast is best served and eaten immediately after making.
