Method

Instructions

  1. Whisk the ground flaxseed and water together and let sit 5 minutes to gel — this replaces the egg.
  2. Whisk the almond milk, flax gel, nutmeg, cinnamon, and maple syrup together in a wide, shallow dish.
  3. Dunk each slice of bread in the mixture, soaking 20 to 30 seconds per side.
  4. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook the soaked bread 3 to 4 minutes per side until deep golden.
  5. Serve immediately with extra maple syrup.
