Matcha French Toast

Ingredients:

• 2 slices of bread (preferably brioche, sourdough or another soft bread)

• 1 egg

• 60 ml plant-based milk (e.g. oat or almond milk)

• 1 tsp matcha powder

• 1 tsp maple syrup (alternatively: coconut blossom sugar)

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 pinch of salt

• Coconut oil or ghee for frying

Optional topping:

• Fresh fruit (e.g. banana, kiwi, berries)

• coconut flakes
  

• Other toppings of your choice: nut butter, granola, maple syrup...

Preparation:

1. Prepare the matcha mixture:
   In a shallow bowl, thoroughly whisk together the egg, plant-based milk, matcha powder, maple syrup, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt until the matcha has completely dissolved.

2. Soak bread:
   Place the bread slices in the matcha mixture and let them soak for about 30 seconds on each side. The bread should be well moistened, but not soggy.

3. Sauté:
   Heat a little coconut oil or ghee in a pan. Fry the bread slices in it over medium heat until golden brown on both sides – about 2–3 minutes per side.

4. Serve:
   Arrange on a plate and top with fresh fruit, coconut flakes or maple syrup as desired.

💚 Tip:

French toast tastes best warm straight from the pan. The combination of fluffy bread, delicate matcha aroma, and fresh toppings is perfect for a special start to the day!
