Vegan Low Sodium French Toast

• 4 slices of whole grain or whole wheat bread (make sure it's low-sodium if available)

• 5 tablespoons of flour

• 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any other plant-based milk of your choice)

• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

• A pinch of nutmeg (optional)

• Coconut oil or any other vegan cooking oil for frying

  Instructions:

  1. Whisk flour, cinnamon and nutmeg

  2. Add the almond milk. Mix well until all the ingredients are combined.

  3. Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add a little coconut oil or vegan cooking oil to coat the surface.

  4. Dip each slice of bread into the flour- almond milk mixture, making sure both sides are coated evenly but not soaked.

  5. Place the coated bread slices on the preheated skillet or griddle. Cook each side for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn golden brown and slightly crispy.

  6. Once the French toast slices are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate.

  7. Top with fresh fruit, if desired, and drizzle with maple syrup or a low-sodium vegan syrup.
