Dairy Free Toast Tips

• Instead of cow’s milk you can use plant based milk. For instance, substitute with coconut milk, almond milk, rice milk, soy milk or oat milk.

• Also, fry few slices of the bread in batches. It depends how big is your frying pan. You can fit 3 or more. Add more butter for frying if necessary.

No Milk French Toast Faq’s

What can I substitute with milk? You can use any plant based milk or a little bit of water, but I don’t really recommend water since the taste might be different. The other option is to just omit milk, only use eggs, sugar and vanilla extract, it will work perfectly. However, keep in mind that you will need more eggs for 8 slices of challah bread.

What can you put on french toast if you don’t have syrup? You can add some honey, any jam or sprinkle with powdered or regular sugar.

How long should you soak French toast? Simply just dip each piece of the bread, so it is covered with batter completely, then flip on other side. If you soak longer the bread will soak the batter making the toast more fluffy, but you won’t have enough dipping mixture for other slices. Approximately 10 to 15 seconds is enough to dip each side of bread.
