Gluten Free French Toast with Apples and Cinnamon
This gluten free French toast recipe is simple, classic, easy and it tastes a lot like homemade apple pie!
Equipment
- Cutting board for apples
- Apple peeler and slicer
- Bowl and whisk
- Frying pans (2)
Ingredients
- 6 pieces bread of choice
- 4 apples peeled and sliced
- 1/2 cup real maple syrup
- 2 eggs
- 1 splash milk or milk substitute of choice
- 2 tbsp butter or coconut oil
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
Apple cinnamon compote
- In a separate pan (or small pot), over low-medium heat, sauté the sliced apples with the 1/2 of the one teaspoon of cinnamon in a tablespoon of butter or butter substitute.
- Once the apples begin to cook down, add the maple syrup and reduce to low heat. This will make the apple topping.
- Let it simmer while you get started on the French toast!
French toast
- In a bowl, combine the eggs with milk/milk substitute, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (leave the other half) and the vanilla.
- Submerge one to two pieces of bread at a time in the egg mixture so that each side is completely coated.
- Heat one tablespoon of butter or butter sub in a large pan over medium heat for a few minutes, then start cooking the bread on each side until it’s golden brown. It should take two to three minutes on each side.
- Repeat the process until you have cooked off all the French toast.
- Plate it and top with your apple cinnamon compote, and enjoy!
