French Toast without Milk
French toast is a classic breakfast dish that is loved by many for its sweet, custardy flavor and crispy texture. Traditionally, French toast is made by soaking bread in a mixture of eggs and milk before frying it until golden brown. However, for those who are lactose intolerant or following a dairy-free diet, it can be challenging to find a suitable alternative to milk in the recipe. Fortunately, there are several dairy-free options available that can be used to create delicious French toast without sacrificing the rich and creamy texture that milk provides.
