There’s something funny about vegan breakfasts, it’s doing away with eggs. At first, it sounds impossible, and it’s overwhelming. But after egg-free baking recipes like my Eggless Pancakes or my Eggless Banana Bread, you will find it easy and tastier, and I’m sure you’ll wonder why eggs are used in baking. So whether you are allergic to eggs or vegan, you will love to know that making French toast without eggs is possible. These French toast taste better than any French toast with eggs. After all, French toast are custardy bread, and making vegan custard is pretty easy. Eggs are not the key to good custard, and most French toast recipes taste bad because too many eggs are used, resulting in an omelette-like flavor. So let’s see how to make the ultimate Eggless French Toast in less than 20 minutes.

Ingredients and Substitutions

All you need are a few wholesome ingredients:

Stale Bread – Pick a bread loaf that has been sitting on your kitchen counter for a few days. Slightly tougher bread makes better French toast because the crumb will absorb just the right amount of moisture. As a result, it prevents soggy French toast. Plant-Based Milk – You can use any milk you like. I find that high-protein milk like soy milk makes richer French toast. The custard is creamier than with oat milk, almond milk, or coconut milk. Cornstarch or corn flour – I don’t recommend using tapioca starch or arrowroot flour. It makes the batter gluey. The role of cornstarch is to act as an egg replacer and make the French toast crispy. Flaxseed Meal – Golden or brown. Golden flaxseed has a less earthy flavor than brown flaxmeal. This ingredient adds a lovely custard texture. Turmeric – For a yellow color and golden French toast. Of course, this is optional, and you can skip this spice if you don’t have it at home. Cinnamon Vanilla Extract Plant-Based Butter, coconut oil, or avocado oil to fry the bread.

Storage Instructions

French toast always tastes better warm, just after cooking. However, if you have cooked too many slices, you can store them in the fridge on a plate covered with kitchen wrap. It can be stored for up to 2 days in the fridge, but it softens, and you will have to air fry or rewarm the French toast in a warm griddle to get the crispiness back. You can also freeze French toast in zip-lock bags, thaw them in the fridge the day before and rewarm them as mentioned above.

However, if you have some food intolerances, try some of the options below.

Corn-Free – This recipe’s best swap to cornstarch is besan flour or chickpea flour. This is a gluten-free flour with a light bitter flavor so you may have to add more vanilla extract or sugar to cover this flavor. Gluten-Free – The best bread for French toast is dense bread, and therefore, any gluten-free loaf with a tough crumb will work. Sugar-Free – You can replace the sugar with sugar-free natural sweeteners like allulose or erythritol or skip the sweetener. Refined Sugar-Free – Try refined sugar-free sweeteners like coconut sugar, date sugar, or unrefined cane sugar.
