🥘Ingredients

Top down view of all ingredients with text labels.

I have only tested this recipe with the Bob's Redmill egg replacer for this recipe. However, I have heard this can work with Just Egg or even aquafaba.

Use any bread you can find. Typically french toast is made with a thick, french brioche type of bread but we do not live in a place where fancy vegan brioche bread exists and all of the french bread has allergens, haha. Really, any bread is fine.

Apple cider vinegar is optional depending on the sour cream you go with. I find that some vegan sour creams need a little more sour injected and ACV is perfect at doing that. Attenion Tofutti fans, here's your hint to make it more sour.

See recipe card for specific measurements.

🔪Instructions

step one adding ingredients to a bowl.

Step One - Add milk, egg replacer powder, cinnamon, and Kala Namak to a bowl.

step two whisking ingredients for batter.

Step Two - Whisk everything until well combined, then set aside and allow it to thicken.

step three adding peaches and brown sugar to pan.

Step Three - In a saucepan, add the peaches and cook until softened, then add brown sugar.

step four cooking peaches.

Step Four - Cook until the peaches caramelize a bit and become sauce-like.

step five combining ingredients for sauce.

Step Five - Make the creamy sauce with sour cream, apple cider vinegar (optional depending on the sour cream) and brown sugar.

step six mix cream sauce ingredients together.

Step Six - Mix well and allow to sit so that the sugar dissolves better. It should be sweet, yet tangy.

step seven battering the bread.

Step Seven - Dip the bread in the batter and get it well coated.

step eight frying the toast.

Step Eight - Fry up the bread!

👩🏻‍🍳Cook's Top Tip
If you feel the batter is too thick, cut back on the egg replacer. Optionally, you can also use Just Egg product. I would season the Just Egg with a bit if sugar, cinnamon, and kala namak.

💡Variations & Substitutions

  • Adding regular sugar and a bit of flour to your caramelizing fruit will give you the same desired results in case you don't have brown sugar on hand.
  • You can add more than cinnamon to this recipe, allspice and nutmeg are other great choices for this!
  • If you do not have bobs red mill egg replacer, try Just Egg as is (feel free to add a little more black salt to it), or try using aquafaba (the liquid from a can of chickpeas). Just add a little plant-based milk, black salt, cinnamon and sugar. The texture will be different, but you will get a good crust.
  • If using sandwich bread, do not let the bread sit in the batter too long. Dip and coat quickly and get it into the frying pan.
  • The best bread to use for this recipe would be french bread of course. If using french bread, soak in the batter for at least 5 seconds. It is stronger than that weakling sandwich bread. Don't tell sandwich bread I said that.

🍱Storage

French Toast is best eaten right away, but if you must store it for later:

  • Refrigerator - In an airtight container for up to 2 days.
  • Store everything separately - If you're serving a large amount and need to wait for the next day, I would advise keeping everything separate in the fridge, then finishing the next day. You may get away with cooking up the bread half and storing those by themselves in some foil, then cooking the peaches and storing those in a glass dish, then on the day of, just warm everything in the microwave. You may also need to warm up the cream sauce.
  • Do not freeze
  • Reheat - Microwave at 30 second intervals. Can also bake if no microwave available.

❓FAQ

Do the French eat French Toast?

If you're ever in France, do not ask for French Toast. French toast is not actually French. Instead ask for "Pain Perdu" which translates to "lost bread". The roots of French toast date back to Ancient Rome.

Is French Toast supposed to be soggy?

The outside of French toast should be crispy while the inside custard-like.

How long will French toast keep in the fridge?

Around 4-5 days at most. Most food starts to lose flavor after day 3 so keep that in mind. You could also freeze it for later!

Notes

  • Vegan
  • For Gluten-Free - Use a gluten-free bread of your choice and of course make any switches elsewhere as necessary.
  • Bread types - If you can get good, thick french bread without dairy or egg, that's fantastic, use that! If you do not have access like me, regular bread is fine. Just be aware that regular bread will need to be in and out of the batter much quicker to avoid falling apart.
  • Egg replacer options - If you do not have bobs red mill egg replacer, I would suggest trying Just Egg if you have access to it, or trying aquafaba the liquid from a can of chickpeas.
  • Storage - While this is something you should eat the same day, it is possible to store this Refrigerator - In an airtight container for up to 2 days. Store everything separately - If you're serving a large amount and need to wait for the next day, I would advise keeping everything separate in the fridge, then finishing the next day. You may get away with cooking up the bread half and storing those by themselves in some foil, then cooking the peaches and storing those in a glass dish, then on the day of, just warm everything in the microwave. You may also need to warm up the cream sauce.

    I'm not much on French bread but I made this with regular sliced bread and it worked! My first time and I was able to do so with your easy instructions!

    Breakfast was delicious this morning! We did not have any peaches (those are super hard to get here), but I used frozen blueberries and I was not disapointed!

    I found that I did not enjoy making this with Bobs red mill egg replacer. It simply did not work out for me! So I used Just Egg with a little bit of Maple syrup as a replacement and it worked better for me that way. I'm sure I did something wrong somewhere, but just in case anyone else has an issue with it, this might work for them.

      Steve, I'm glad you found a work-around that works for you! I'm sorry the Bobs egg replacer did not work out for you, I hope you'll give it another try in the future! Thank you for your feedback as well, this will be helpful to others!
