  • In a frying pan, melt 2 tablespoons vegan butter.
    While the pan warms up, soak two slices of bread in the batter until the bread absorbs the liquid, but without getting mushy and falling apart.
    Tip: Soaking time varies from a few seconds for sandwich bread to a minute or two for one-day old crusty bread.

    Turn it around and do the same on the other side. Add more butter if the pan gets dry.
    Tip: Keep the vegan French toast warm in a slightly warm oven while you finish cooking the other slices.

STORAGE & MAKE AHEAD
Make ahead: Vegan French toast is best enjoyed warm after cooking. Leftovers don’t keep well, so we don’t recommend making it in advance.
However, you can prepare the batter in advance and keep it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Refrigerator: Leftovers don’t keep well, but if you have some, you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for 24 hours.
Reheat them on a frying pan with a knob of vegan butter.
Freezer: this recipe is not suitable for freezing.
