Servings: 2
Ingredients
- 3-4 slices of toasted or stale bread (I used Texas thick cut white bread)
- 1/2 cup non dairy milk
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1/2 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp vegan butter for pan frying
Cinnamon sugar coating:
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tbsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- To make the cinnamon sugar coating, mix together granulated sugar and cinnamon until combined. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine the non dairy milk, sugar, cornstarch, ground flaxseeds, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix to dissolve the cornstarch.
- Slice your toasted or stale bread into 3-4 pieces to look like sticks.
- Add the vegan butter to your frying pan over medium high heat and melt. Dip your sticks into the batter and then flip and dip the other side to coat.
- Add your soaked bread into the pan and cook for 2-3 mins on each side or until golden brown on both sides (If its browning to quickly, lower the heat).
- Toss the warm French toast sticks in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat.
- Serve with a maple syrup and fresh berries. Enjoy immediately!

Notes
- Toasted or stale bread works best. Fresh bread tends to be more delicate to work with and makes for soggy sticks.
- Don’t soak the bread for too long, a couple seconds on each side is good enough.
- Make sure your pan is pre-heated over medium-medium high heat, you want the pan to be hot when you add the French toast sticks. This will help cook the batter immediately, creating a crispy exterior.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan, make sure you leave a bit of space between each stick to ensure they cook and brown evenly.
