Gluten Free French Toast
by: claire cary
This gluten free french toast is the ultimate family favorite breakfast! Made with my homemade gluten free bread for a delicious and sweet breakfast that is ready in under 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 8 slices gluten free bread sliced thick
- 4 eggs
- ⅔ cup milk
- ¼ cup brown sugar see notes
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons butter for the pan
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl or baking dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and salt.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
- Once melted, dip about 2 slices of bread into the egg mixture and coat well on each side. I like to let it sit for about 45 seconds to really soak it up. You can do longer or shorter. The longer you do, the more moist the toast will be.
- Add to your heated pan and let fry on each side until browned, about 1-2 minutes.
- Place on a wire rack while you repeat with the rest of the bread. This will prevent it from getting soggy. You can also preheat the oven to about 200 degrees and let it rest in there so it stays warm.
- Serve with fresh fruit like berries or banana, maple syrup, chocolate chips, butter - whatever you like! Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to decrease the brown sugar since you'll probably be adding maple syrup to sweeten anyway. It adds some depth of flavor but you can decrease to just 1-2 tablespoons.
You may need to add a touch more butter to the pan in between cooking the slices. If you notice anything sticking, just melt in an extra tablespoon of butter.
