Start your morning with French toast without eggs that are
ready in 30 minutes or less. They taste exactly like your French toast which
has a crispy crust soft and fluffy but made without eggs. Many people dislike
eggs because they are allergic to eggs.
Sweet French toast without eggs is not common in the United
States, of course, the use of vegan desserts is on the rise. If you do not like
eggs or are allergic to eggs, this recipe is perfect for you. This toast recipe
is very simple and you can make them in 5 minutes!
Eggless French toast ingredients.
Let's talk about the ingredients of this recipe that we will
need. There are no fancy ingredients to make it.
Bread:
Bread is the most important ingredient in this recipe. You
need a thick loaf of bread to make this recipe so that this bread is soaked in
liquid and retains its shape well during cooking. I used rustic white bread
from a local bakery. You can also use Chula if you wish!
Milk:
Use whole milk for the best results. Skim milk does not work
well in this recipe.
Cornstarch:
Use corn starch to thicken the mixture soaked in the absence
of eggs. Corn starch thickens the milk mixture and thus the mixture sticks well
to the bread.
Flavoring:
French toast offers a variety of flavors with beetroot /
liquid vanilla juice, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom. I use sugar taste to make
it slightly sweeter.
How to Make French toast Without Eggs?
We can easily make a thick mixture with just milk and corn
starch and add some spices and vanilla to taste.
Use the right bread:
It is very important to use the right bread in this recipe,
as I mentioned earlier. A regular white bread or brown bread will also work in
it but after baking, they will not have the same texture so give preference to
thick bread. It works best in this recipe.
Flavor with spices:
Cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, and vanilla are some of the
spices needed to season the liquid. These spices and vanilla make the toast
delicious.
Use a good amount of butter to fry:
Feel free to use butter when frying toast on the pan. Using
about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of butter per slice (for large thick slices) gives very
good results.
Cast iron skillet gives better French toast:
Cooking them on a cast-iron skeleton instead of the usual
non-stick skeletons gives it a great flavor and texture.
Step by Step Instructions.
1- In a large bowl, add milk and corn starch and mix.
2- Now add sugar to this milk and corn starch solution. If
you like sweet French toast, you can add an extra 1 tablespoon or as per your
taste.
3- Then add vanilla extract, cinnamon powder, nutmeg,
cardamom powder, and a pinch of salt, and stir until all these ingredients are
well mixed.
4- Heat the cast iron skeleton on the stove and heat it over
medium heat. Put 1 tablespoon of butter on the skeleton and let it melt. Now,
take your bread and dip it in the liquid mixture.
Remember to shake the mixture a little before dipping the
bread in it (shake the mixture a little before dipping the bread each time
because the corn starch freezes at the bottom of the mixture).
5-Dip the bread slice on one side for a few seconds and then
turn and dip on the other side so that the bread is well coated.
6-Carefully place the soaked bread in the pan. Cook on one
side for 3 to 4 minutes.
7-After cooking on one side, turn it over and fry it on the
other side till it turns golden brown on both sides. Repeat for all the other
loaves. Remember to clean the skeleton after frying each slice and add more
butter for each slice.

Like pancakes, waffles, and muffins, this French toast can
also be frozen in the freezer. After cooking, cool the French toast to room
temperature before wrapping it with parchment paper. You can freeze these slices
in a freezer bag for 1 to 2 months.
HOW TO REHEAT EGGLESS FRENCH TOAST?
You can easily reheat them in a toaster or oven at 375F for
8 to 10 minutes. If you want to make your breakfast pre-packaged frozen French
toast sticks, cut the baked French toast into strips, freeze and reheat to
serve.

Tips & Notes
·
Stir the mixture before dipping the bread slice
and do this for each slice. The corn starch settles to the bottom of the
solution so it is necessary to stir the mixture.
·
Clean the skeleton each time after cooking each
slice. Remember that the pan should not be too hot, otherwise the butter will
burn, keep the heat medium while cooking.
·
To reheat them, use a toaster. You can also
reheat the oven at 350 F for 8-10 minutes.
· If you like sweet toast, add an extra tablespoon of sugar to the milk mixture.
