Ingredients

6 slices of gluten-free bread I use the breadsrsly XL loaves. Code UNBOUNDWELLNESS for a discount!
2 eggs
½ cup almond milk
2 tbsp coconut sugar
2 tsp molasses
1 tsp cinnamon
¾ tsp ginger powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp ghee sub coconut oil or butter

To serve

Maple syrup and/or powdered sugar
Pomegranate arils

Instructions

Slice the gluten-free bread slices in half, making 12 French toast bread sticks. Set aside.
Using a shallow bowl, combine the eggs, almond milk, coconut sugar, molasses, cinnamon, ginger and vanilla extract. Whisk well to combine.
Using a large pan set over medium-low heat, melt the ghee.
Working with 3-4 french toast sticks at a time, dip in the egg mixture, rotating to allow to soak entirely. Pick up the bread and tilt to allow any excess liquid to drip off.
Transfer the bread to the preheated pan and cook for a couple of minutes on each side, until lightly crisp and golden brown. Transfer to a clean plate and repeat with all of the bread.
Serve the French toast topped with powdered sugar and pomegranate seeds.

Notes

This recipe is best fresh, but if you do make it ahead of time, store it in the fridge overnight without and toppings and quickly reheat on the stove for a couple of minutes before adding toppings.

I prefer to use blackstrap molasses but use mild molasses for a lighter flavor.

I recommend the Breadsrsly XL sourdough loaf. My discount code is UNBOUNDWELLNESS. Other gluten-free bread will work, but the texture will vary.
