Ingredients

Scale

For the Stuffed French Toast

  • 6 thick slices of sturdy bread (such as brioche or Texas toast)
  • 1 cup plant-based cream
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries
  • 2 tablespoons natural sweet syrup (plus extra for serving)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

For the Egg-Soaking Mixture

  • 1 cup plant-based milk
  • 2 tablespoons egg substitute natural
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (natural)

Optional for Berry Compote Filling

  • 1/2 cup fresh blackberries
  • 1 teaspoon natural sweet syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon natural gelling agent

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Filling: Whisk the plant-based cream with the vanilla extract (natural) and a touch of natural sweet syrup until the mixture is smooth and fluffy. Set aside to soften while preparing the rest of the recipe.
  2. Create the Berry Mixture: Gently fold fresh blackberries into the whipped cream, leaving some berries whole for texture. For a thicker filling, simmer some blackberries with natural sweet syrup and natural gelling agent to make a compote, then fold into the cream.
  3. Assemble the Stuffed Toast: Carefully cut each thick bread slice horizontally to create a pocket. Spoon the blackberry and cream mixture evenly inside, taking care not to overfill to avoid breaking the bread.
  4. Prepare the Egg-Soaking Mixture: Whisk together the plant-based milk, egg substitute natural, cinnamon (natural), and vanilla extract (natural) in a shallow dish to create the soaking batter for the bread.
  5. Soak and Cook: Gently dip each stuffed bread slice into the soaking mixture, allowing sufficient absorption without becoming soggy. Cook on a hot non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat until both sides are golden brown and slightly crisp, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  6. Serve Warm with Syrup: Place the French toast on plates, drizzle generously with natural sweet syrup, and garnish with extra fresh blackberries or a light dusting of cinnamon (natural) as desired.

Notes

  • Choose thick bread to hold the filling well and maintain structure during cooking.
  • Do not overfill the bread pockets to prevent breakage while cooking.
  • Use ripe blackberries for enhanced natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Cook the French toast over medium heat to ensure the exterior crisps evenly without burning.
  • Let the cooked French toast rest for a minute before cutting to allow it to settle and make handling easier.
