Does French Toast Have to Be Gluten-Free?
Celiac disease and gluten intolerance normally limit breakfast options
eaten outside one’s home. On the contrary, breakfast such as French toast is
common yet quite easy to prepare without gluten. You can still gorge on that
soft and custardy French toast that is a brunch favorite with the right bread
and fillings used.
Ingredients (Serves 4)
To prepare this gluten-free French toast, you need the following:
Gluten-Free Bread: 8 slices Select your favorite type of gluten-free bread. You can take Schor, Udi’s gluten-free bread, or make your gluten-free bread at home.
· Eggs: 4 large eggs
· Milk (or Dairy-Free Alternative): 1 cup (if non-diary, almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk can be used).
· Vanilla Extract: 1 teaspoon
· Cinnamon: 1/2 teaspoon
· Sugar: 2 tablespoons (Do not worry if you do not have any sugar.) You may substitute maple syrup, honey, or any other alternative sugar.

Preparation
Step 1: Whisk together batters in a bowl, crack and beat together eggs, milk (or an alternative),
vanilla essence, cinnamon, sugar, and a touch of salt. This combination of
ingredients is French toast batter, often adored for its soft custard-like
texture.
Step 2: Prepare the Gluten-Free Bread Take your slices of gluten-free bread and let them rest on the counter
for a few minutes. Slightly dried or stiff bread is preferred since it soaks up
the egg mixture but does not become overly mushy.
Step 3: Heating Up the Pan Place a non-stick frying pan or griddle on medium flame. Add 1
tablespoon of butter/oil and wait until it melts and covers the surface of the
pan evenly.
Step 4: Dip to Cook the Bread Each slice of gluten-free bread should be dipped in the egg mixture so
that it is immersed for 15 to 20 seconds on each face. Use care in not allowing
the bread to become too wet, as bread of the gluten-free nature is quite
fragile. Then, after the necessary amount of time has elapsed, the bread is
placed into the already warmed pan. Each bread piece is seared for
approximately 2-3 minutes on each side until golden crisp color is achieved.
More butter/oil may be required to avoid burning after a few batches.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy The last bread slick has been cooked; slice and plate and top with
whatever ingredients you wish. Everyone would be fine with this dish that is
crowned with maple syrup, fresh berries, icing sugar, or some whipped cream.
