French toast is a classic breakfast dish that is typically made with eggs, milk, and bread. However, this vegan version uses plant-based milk and eggs to create a dish that is just as delicious and satisfying. The addition of berries and maple syrup adds a touch of sweetness and acidity, making this dish perfect for breakfast or brunch.
