French Toast Without Eggs
This post may contain affiliate links (disclosure).
This recipe for French Toast Without Eggs is a life-saver when you’re craving french toast but don’t have any eggs. You just need bread, milk, and butter for this simple breakfast. Cornstarch adds creaminess to the dish and you won’t even miss the eggs.
What Can I Use Instead Of Eggs For French Toast?
No eggs? No problem! Adding just a bit of cornstarch creates a delicious texture for french toast. Or you could skip the eggs and cornstarch entirely and just use milk and butter on your bread. Very simple but hits the spot!
We also like to add vanilla and cinnamon for that homestyle flavor. And maple syrup is a must! You could also top this french toast with fruit compote, cinnamon sugar, whipped cream, or even chocolate drizzle. Yum!

How To Make French Toast Without Eggs
Heat a griddle to 375 degrees or a frying pan to medium high heat.
Add 3/4 cup of milk to a mixing bowl. Sprinkle in 1 Tablespoon of corn starch. Stir with a fork to blend together.
Sprinkle in cinnamon and vanilla. Stir to mix it all up.
Prep griddle by coating with butter (other options listed below). Add 2 Tablespoons to a griddle or 1 Tablespoon to a frying pan. Use a spatula to move the melted butter all over the cooking surface.
Dip both sides of each slice of bread in the milk mixture and place on hot griddle. Cook for 4 minutes or until bread is brown on the bottom.
Carefully flip the french toast (bread will be softer without eggs) and cook for another 3 minutes or until it is browned on both sides. Keep an eye on this dish while it’s cooking. If it starts to burn, turn down the heat to medium.
When french toast is done, move it to a serving plate. Turn off the griddle.
