Finding The Best Bread For French Toast

Using the right bread to make french toast is essential. I’ve had the best luck with dense, hearty breads such as sourdough, French or Italian loaves and round artisan breads, cut into 3/4 – 1 inch thick slices (1/2 inch pre-sliced loaves should be ok too).

These breads are sturdy and can stand to be dipped in liquids. Unlike the majority of breads typically found in the bread isle, which tend to get soggy.

So for the best results, head to the bakery section and pick up a loaf of sourdough, French, Italian or whole grain artisan bread!

How To Make Orange French Toast

This vegan Orange French Toast recipe is SO easy to make! Simply mix your ingredients, in a shallow  bowl, dip the bread on both sides and cook on the griddle or skillet for 2 – 3 minutes per side.

That’s it, vegan french toast made simple, straight forward and quick!

Result is golden, flavorful slices of pillowy soft deliciousness. I ❤️orange-french toast!

• Yield: Serves 3
• Category: Breakfast
• Cuisine: Vegan

Ingredients

• 1 loaf french or sourdough bread, sliced 3/4 – 1 inch thick
• 1/2 cup almond milk, or non-dairy milk of choice
• 1/2 cup fresh squeezed or pure organic orange juice
• 2 tablespoons pure cane sugar, maple syrup or coconut palm sugar
• a few dashes of cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, optional
• 1 to 2 tablespoons coconut oil, for griddle/skillet
• pure maple syrup, to serve
• pure cane powdered sugar, to garnish (optional)

Instructions

In medium size, flat bottom, shallow bowl, mix milk and orange juice. Add choice of sweetener, cinnamon and optional vanilla extract, mix well.

Melt coconut oil on griddle/skillet at about a medium high heat, lightly dip both sides of toast in mixture and cook until golden brown on each side, approx. 2 – 3 minutes per side. After dipping 3 or 4 toasts you may want to add a few more dashes of cinnamon to the mixture, it floats on top and will most likely be gone after the first few dips.

Serve with pure maple syrup and garnish of choice.

Serves about 3 – 4, depending on how thick you slice your bread.
