My granddaughter is allergic to eggs,dairy,soy, and coconut. It’s been a chore trying to feed her. My daughter and myself are always looking for new ideas.

I’ve made this two times. My french toast hating 8.5 year old loved them!!!

I used a nonstick electric griddle and there was no stick to the pan. My little guy is dairy, wheat, and egg free. I used O’Doughs flax bread. ( freezer section of health food store)

I tried this recipe with such high hopes-we have really good non stick pans, yet this stuck so incredibly bad! Each time I tried to turn them, it peeled off a layer of sticky mess. I played around with amounts and types of oils to the pan to no avail. Couldn’t get it to create a crust without ripping the bread apart. Any suggestions?

Mine stuck bad too. It’s not perfect but helps to spray coconut oil down quick between flips. I hold the bread up in one hand and spray where I’m going to set it down for each one.

I had the same problem, took them out of the pan and put them in the toaster oven
