THE BEST FRENCH TOAST EVER! // RECIPE //
sucks ☐ / passable ☐ / great ☐ / perfect ✓
French toast is the best. And this is the best french toast recipe. It is so light and fluffy and DELICIOUS and it tastes so good…
You Will Need:
• 1 pie plate
• 2 eggs
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon
• 1/8 tsp nutmeg
• 1/8 tsp clove
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• unsweetened almond milk (Califia Farms is good but you can use whatever as long as it’s unsweetened)
• avocado oil (for oiling pan)
• Katz gluten free sliced challah bread (buy online)
How to Make:
Get your pie plate. Scramble 2 eggs in it. Add in your cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves, stir. Also add in your vanilla extract and stir. Then pour in enough almond milk (or regular milk if you want, it works the same) to soak all your bread. If you’re making the whole loaf, that’ll be all the way to the top-ish.1
You should be heating a pan now too. If you have an electric nonstick skillet, use that. Put some avocado oil in it & set it for 350°. Behold, the fun part:
NOW…. stick your bread in. VERY QUICKLY or it will get soggy. Just dip it one side, take it out, and dip the other side. If you’re using a skillet you can fit 4 pieces at the same time so it won’t take forever.2 When your bread is in the pan sprinkle the top with cinnamon. Let the bread fry a couple of minutes until it’s browned then flip over & sprinkle that side with cinnamon too. Fry until it’s brown, and flip over one more time, then… you can take it out & EAT!
► DEFINITELY USE THIS PARTICULAR BREAD. I mean you can use a different bread, but who knows how good it will end up. With the Katz challah it tastes AMAZING. I wouldn’t recommend this challah just to eat plain; it’s kind of meh. Definitely not worth going online and buying it instead of whatever you usually get. But if you’re making french toast, TOTALLY GET IT BECAUSE IT MAKES SUCH A DIFFERENCE…….!!!!!!! some people have described the resulting french toast, in admiration, as “almost like a donut.” I don’t know what this means since it isn’t really anything like a donut, but just so you know.
WHERE TO BUY: online or in some regular supermarkets [supposedly. i’ve never seen it in a supermarket though].
***general disclaimer. check certification & ingredients, use your judgment. not everything I link to is certified
very precise.
if you’re making lots, it’s good to have a container to stick the finished pieces in so they stay warm. or a plate with a pot cover on it, that works too.
Now I want a donut. ;-)
