Vegan French toast with white nectarine

When I went to the supermarket yesterday I found the shelves filled with large, fresh white nectarines. I hadn’t tried them before but still the naturally sweet aroma was coming through the packaging. Thinking they must be super juicy and sweet, so I bought 2 packs. 🤤🤤🤤

As soon as I got home I picked out the biggest nectarine and gave it a big bite. The natural sweetness slowly spread through my mouth and at the same time a big smile spread on my face. It was sooooo sweet and flavoursome! I normally don’t like chocolate (don’t hate me 🙈) and processed sweets like icing or candy, but I love sweet fruits like cherry, nectarine, and mango.

I felt like I must make the most of these delicious fruits and since I haven’t had French toast for a while, why not make some French toast with nectarines?

Whisk the flour, ground flaxseeds, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon and milk together in a shallow bowl. Mix well and set aside.

This step needs to be done before cooking the nectarine so that the flaxseeds have time to absorb the milk.

Wash the nectarine and cut it in half lengthwise along the pit.

Twist the two halves in opposite directions. Remove the pit and cut it into 8 wedges.

Place the nectarine wedges in a frying pan and cook on a high heat for 2 minutes. Flip the slices over and cook for another 2 minutes until both sides are nicely brown.

Bring the heat down to medium and add the maple syrup and water. Continue cooking for 3 – 5 minutes – the water should slowly start to evaporate and the syrup should start to turn golden in colour (but not burnt). Turn the wedges occasionally, making sure the syrup covers the wedges evenly.

Transfer the wedges and their syrup to a container, set aside.

Let’s get the toast ready – clean up the pan, add 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil and heat on a high heat.

Give the milk mixture a little stir, dip a slice of bread into it for 10-15 seconds, flip the bread, and dip the slice for another 10-15 seconds. Shake off any excess mixture.

Fry the bread on both sides until it starts to brown and crisp at the edges. Repeat this same process again until all 4 pieces of toasts are nicely browned.

If you have a big pan, you can fry more than 1 piece of toast at a time as long as they don’t touch each other.
