Fancy French Toast (Dairy-Free & Gluten-Free)

Ingredients

1 cup milk (1 cup Simple Truth Unsweetened Almond Milk)

3 eggs

1/4 cup flour (Bob's Gluten-Free 1 to 1 Baking Flour)

2 tsp sugar (Madhava Organic Coconut Sugar)

1 tsp vanilla

Pinch of salt

Several slices of bread (×14 Slices Franz Gluten Free Mountain White Bread)


Canola oil (for spraying, either in a spray bottle or aerosol can)

Aluminum Foil & Parchment Paper


Directions

While this recipe can be made like traditional French Toast, in a lightly oiled pan or on a griddle, when using Gluten-Free bread, I prefer to use the oven.

Preheat the oven to 400° F (204° C). Line two half-oven baking sheets with a layer of aluminum foil and then a layer of parchment paper. (Parchment paper is vital for this recipe to work in the oven. I've learned to have parchment paper on hand when cooking Gluten-free recipes, and it has been a game changer.) Spray lightly with canola oil.

Add all ingredients, except the bread slices, to a gallon-size Ziploc bag and mix thoroughly. Add bread slices to the bag, 3-4 at a time, and shake up so that the bread is covered in the egg mixture, but not soggy.

Place the dipped bread slices in a single layer on the baking sheets with around one half-inch in between each slice. Spray the tops of the slices lightly with canola oil. Bake for 15 minutes, and then broil on low heat until the slices are just golden.

Enjoy hot out of the oven. Once cool enough, put the remaining french toast in a Ziploc bag and store it in the refrigerator. Re-heat slices using a toaster. 

Top with either syrup, fresh berries, or powdered sugar.


Please appropriately recycle washed and dried Ziploc bags with other plastic film materials.

Borscht

This recipe is from a friend of ours who lived in Romania for a couple years. It's more of a journey and there aren't set ingredient amounts per se, but more guidelines of what can be added. What I end up using often depends on what I can find/what I feel like adding that day. If you find this concerning or have a question, feel free to leave it in a comment and I will try to address it in a timely manner.

Long Steeped Iced Teas

The beauty of these tea recipes is that the teas are sweetened with 100% juice, meaning there is no added sugar or artificial sweeteners.  Add the tea bags directly to the juice bottle and let them steep overnight. If desired, removed the bags (two or three at a time) before pouring.
