Ingredients You Need for Easy Dairy-Free Blueberry French Toast [Vegan]
For the Vegan French Toast:
- 1 loaf vegan brioche bread (Preferably a day old; you can also use vegan challah or ciabatta bread or any other rustic bread.)
- 1 cup Almond milk, Unsweetened (Room Temp.) (You can use your fave plant-based milk)
- 2 chia eggs, room temperature (2 tablespoons chia seeds + 6 tablespoons warm water whisked in a small bowl and let sit for 10 minutes)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1-2 tablespoons Agave syrup or pure maple syrup
- vegan butter, for cooking
For the Blueberry Compote:
- 2 cups Blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup organic cane sugar
- 1 tablespoon freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 1/4 cup fresh water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Arrowroot starch + 1 tablespoon fresh warm water
How to Prepare Easy Dairy-Free Blueberry French Toast [Vegan]
For the French Toast:
- Whisk together all the ingredients (except for the bread) into a large bowl and set aside so that everything marries together and activates, about 5 minutes.
- Preheat griddle or large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegan butter, melting it.
- Dip 1 slice of bread into the batter, soaking it in for a few seconds on each side. Place slice unto the heated griddle, cooking on each side for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Repeat until all french toast have been made.
For the Compote:
- In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, add the blueberries, lemon juice, cane sugar, vanilla, and water together, stirring until everything comes to a boil and the blueberry juices are released.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the liquid is reduced considerably, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes. To thicken, mix together the arrowroot and WARM WATER until it's combined and has a "milky" consistency. Add to the blueberry mixture and stir until it begins to thicken.
- Once done, remove from heat.
- To serve—stack french toast atop each other, spoon a generous amount of blueberry compote/topping and drizzle with maple syrup, if desired.
- Bon Appetit!
