Servings: 2

Prep time: 5 mins | Cook time: 15 mins | Total: 20 mins

INGREDIENTS

• 4 pieces thick bread slices

• 4 tablespoons chickpea flour

• 1 cups plant milk

• 2 tablespoons maple syrup

• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract

• 1 teaspoons cinnamon

• 1 pinch nutmeg

• 2 tablespoons coconut oil for frying

• 1 pieces fresh berries and maple syrup to serve

• 1 tablespoons powdered sugar to dust

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make the batter: In a wide shallow bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons chickpea flour, 1 cups plant milk, 2 tablespoons maple syrup, 1 teaspoons vanilla extract, 1 teaspoons cinnamon, and 1 pinch nutmeg until completely smooth with no lumps.

2. Soak the bread: Dip each slice of 4 pieces thick bread slices into the batter, letting it soak for about 20 seconds per side. You want the bread well coated but not falling apart.

3. Fry until golden: Heat 2 tablespoons coconut oil for frying in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Cook each slice for 3-4 minutes per side until deep golden and slightly crispy on the outside.

4. Serve: Dust with 1 tablespoons powdered sugar to dust, pile on 1 pieces fresh berries and maple syrup to serve, and drizzle generously with extra maple syrup. Serve immediately while hot!
