Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3 cups frozen strawberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups vanilla almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract or almond extract
  • 8 slices brioche bread
  • 1 cup finely chopped almonds
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted dairy free margarine (such as smart balance)

Instruction

  • Combine strawberries and sugar in a medium saucepan and add 1/2 cup water. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer, stirring and crushing strawberries against the sides of the saucepan while cooking. Allow to simmer until thickened to your liking, around 15 minutes.
  • While sauce is cooking, whisk together the eggs, milk, and extract in a large baking dish.
  • Dip each piece of bread fully in the egg mixture, and then press both sides into the chopped walnuts, pressing to coat as much as possible.
  • Set aside until ready to make your french toast.
  • When ready to begin, heat a griddle over medium high heat and add 1 tablespoon margarine.
  • Add four slices of bread to the griddle and cook until browned, about 2-3 minutes. Flip to cook the other side until browned.
  • Transfer to a plate and cook the remaining 4 slices.
  • Serve topped with the roasted strawberry syrup.
  • Enjoy!
