Thank you for your amazing, wholesome, balanced recipes. Everything I’ve tried on your blog and cookbook have been amazing. Your recipes have made me love vegetables when I always thought I hated them! I can’t wait to try this French toast this weekend.

Oh my goodness this took our French toast to a whole new level. What great tips!! With 4 kids who love breakfast foods this was fun to add to our other breakfast items we had for a Mother’s Day brunch. I love all your recipes!

We are vegan so we used 1 1/3 cups unsweetened soy milk plus 1/3 cup of Just Egg instead of whole milk and yolks, and soy/vegan margarine instead of butter. The yolks emulsify and add fat, so could also substitute with lecithin, banana, or flax meal but the above ingredients worked for us. A little gummy but that is how French toast seems to me anyway, so it could be me. Worked better to dip and cook quickly before it soaked all the way through. Tasty.
If you have heart disease or are watching your cholesterol for any reason, you save over 550 mg of cholesterol in this recipe by removing the yolks.

Aloha Kate!
I have thoroughly enjoyed whipping this up twice in one week; the second go-around my significant other was also thrilled with how it turned out when I made it for our Sunday morning pre-hike brunch! Each time I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk and very basic, sliced whole wheat sandwich bread – since those were what was on hand – with excellent results. I topped it with fresh strawberries from my garden, sliced white peaches from his yard, and sliced almonds. We both noticed that even before adding the fruit/nut combo we didn’t feel the need to top it with much maple syrup, because the flavor and texture is so wonderful. Thank you, thank you! This is truly foolproof and such a special treat. ☺️
