French Toast without Eggs

Make French Toast without Eggs! This easy recipe uses just a handful of ingredients to make French Toast that is fluffy on the inside and lightly crisp and golden on the outside. Enjoy it with a drizzle of maple syrup and your favorite toppings.

This past month was super busy and getting to the grocery store never seemed to be on the top of the list. I needed a quick dinner one night and settled on breakfast for dinner. French toast to be exact but didn’t have any eggs. Making French Toast without Eggs wasn’t even on my radar until it was.

No one knew I made eggless French Toast! It was light, airy, and golden brown just like regular French Toast. Originally I wanted to make this Cinnamon French Toast recipe so I included cinnamon in this version without eggs. It was so good!

What is French Toast?

French toast is a classic breakfast dish that consists of slices of bread dredged in a wet mixture usually consisting of milk, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. The bread is then cooked until golden brown on a griddle and served with maple syrup and other favorite toppings like fresh fruit. You can use sandwich bread, brioche bread, or even Texas toast when making French toast. The best bread is usually stale bread or day old.

Eggless French Toast Recipe

Eggless French Toast may seem like it would be a big fail but it’s far from that. If you ever wondered how to make French toast without eggs, I’m here to tell you it’s easy and it just may be my go-to from now on even if I do have eggs in the refrigerator. You can still get that same creamy custard for dipping thick slices of bread into that will make a delicious stack of French toast that everyone will love.

The key is to use whole milk and cornstarch. Cornstarch is the thickener and when mixed with milk it gives the consistency similar to heavy cream. Cornstarch will also give your French toast a crispy texture on the outside.

Whether you have an egg allergy or are just out of eggs, this recipe makes delicious French Toast every time.

Pro tip: If you’re cooking a large batch of French toast, you can keep the cooked slices warm in a 200 degree oven for up to 30 minutes. Place a wire rack on a large baking sheet and place the slices of French toast on the rack. Be sure not to leave it in the oven for too long or it will dry out.

What Can you serve with French toast?

The list of what you can serve with this eggless version of French Toast is vast and it comes to what you love and have. We enjoy these sausage biscuit dippers with white gravy, or for a lighter side, fresh fruit yogurt parfaits are delicious to serve. Weekend brunches often include French toast and this Tater Tot Breakfast Casserole. Sometimes a few slices of bacon and hashbrowns are served.
