I don’t know about you but I’m a sucker for brunch. This fluffy french toast makes the perfect morning treat. Don’t forget to add lots of maple syrup and enjoy with a cup of coffee or an iced tea.
Ingredients
- 3 to 4 large pieces of thick bread (I use settlers grain or sourdough)

- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tsp maple syrup
Directions
- Combine plant-based milk, chia seeds, vanilla, and maple syrup in a medium sized bowl
- Put in fridge for about 10 minutes
- Dip both sides of bread into mixture so it gets absorbed but not soaked
- Place the bread on a non-stick pan and cook on medium heat for a few minutes on each side until golden
