You’ll never believe how easy and delicious making vegan french toast can be with this Vegan Cinnamon Orange French Toast recipe!

Why this Recipe Works:

  • I love this recipe because it’s really easy, it’s made with feel-good ingredients, and most importantly – it’s absolutely delicious! There’s something about the flavor combination of sweet vanilla, toasty cinnamon and that hint of orange… It’s a match made in heaven, I tell you!

How can you make french toast vegan?

  • This french toast recipe is also super unique not only for the flavor, but also because it doesn’t require eggs. I know – who would have thought it was possible to make french toast without them?!  We’re using protein and fiber-rich garbanzo bean flour (aka chickpea flour) instead. Bob’s Red Mill is a brand that can be found in most grocery stores in the baking aisle or, of course, on amazon.com.

How to Make Vegan Cinnamon Orange French Toast:

1) Start by heating up your griddle or a large frying pan on medium heat. Then, lightly coat the surface with oil or cooking spray.

2) In a shallow bowl or pie pan, whisk together all of the ingredients, aside from the bread.

3) Then, take a slice of bread and dip it into the creamy mixture.  Give the bread a light nudge to ensure it’s well coated.  Flip the bread over to drench the other side, too.

4) Gently transfer the bread to the hot skillet.

Repeat steps 3 and 4 with the remaining slices of bread.

5) After approximately 3 minutes, flip to cook the other side. Each side should be golden brown with slightly crispy edges when it’s done.

6) Transfer the toast to a plate and then, if you so desire (like I do), drizzle with a bit of maple syrup. It doesn’t need much, as the French toast is pretty darn sweet and flavorful by itself.

Top Tips for Vegan Cinnamon Orange French Toast:

  • When shopping for bread, I recommend looking for the thickest cut bread possible.
  • To really up the eating experience, enjoy this french toast with some fresh orange slices.
  • To keep your slices of french toast warm while making the rest, turn your oven on low and keep your toast on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
