French Toast

In our home we are breakfast eaters. We love waking up and smelling homemade pancakes, waffles and especially French toast. When we switched our diets we discovered that day old spelt or kamut bread, works amazing in our favourite French Toast recipe.

Our favourite French Toast:

Ingredients:

4 eggs
1/2 cup soya milk
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tbsp of orange juice
1 tsp of vanilla
1/2 tsp of grated orange rind (don't omit this, the orange rind makes it so delicious!)
1/4 tsp of nutmeg
pinch of cinnamon
1/4 vegan margarine
 8 slices of spelt or kamut bread
maple syrup

Step 1: In a large bowl whisk together eggs, soya milk, brown sugar, orange juice, vanilla and cinnamon; set aside.
Step 2: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp of the margarine. Dip 1 slice of bread at a time into the egg mixture, press down and let soak for 10 seconds, turn and press again for 10 seconds.
Step 3: Fry the soaked bread in the hot pan for 1-2 minutes on each side, until it is golden.

Pour on the maple syrup and enjoy!
