In a large mixing bowl combine chickpea flour, almond flour, nutritional yeast, cumin powder, basil, parsley, oregano, garlic, and salt. Mix it very well.
Now, whisk in water and milk and make a smooth, thick yet runny batter so that the bread slices can hold it.
Now, warm a skillet on the stove top and grease it with cooking oil or cooking spray.
In the meanwhile, mix the ingredients for toppings in another mixing bowl and keep it aside.
Now, dip the bread in the batter and place it on the warm skillet. Top it with 1-2 tbsp of toppings and cook for 3-5 minutes or until the bottom starts to cook and batter starts to dry up. Gently flip the bread to the other side with the help of the spatula. Make sure the toppings are still sticking to the bread. Press the bread from the center with the spatula towards the skillet so that the toppings are ingrained in the French toast and they do not fall off. Cook for 3-5 minutes or until golden brown in color.
Repeat the above step for the rest of the batter and the bread.
Serve it immediately hot with ketchup or sriracha sauce on the side.
Notes
You may use any bread of your choice. However, the nutritional fact may vary depending on the type of bread that you use.
This recipe makes 6 French toast and the serving size is 1 per person.
If you are allergic to nuts then skip almond flour and make it with only chickpea flour by changing its measurement to 1 cup.
For crispier French toast just cook about 4 minutes extra on both sides at low-medium heat. But do not overcook.
Variation: This recipe can be oven baked. Follow until step 4. Preheat oven at 400-degree Fahrenheit and prepare the sheet pan or any baking sheet of your choice. (Greasing it is absolutely optional depending on your diet choice). Dip the bread into the batter and place the slices on the baking sheet. Pour the remaining batter on the bread slices and top them with the onion salad. Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Take the baking sheet out of the pan and flip the bread slices to the other side with the help of the spatula. Make sure the toppings are sticking to the bread slices. Press them slightly from the center so it cooks well. Put back the baking sheet in the oven and bake it again for 15-20 minutes or until done. Serve immediately.
