Step 1

Stir coconut milk, maple syrup or agave, nutmeg, vanilla and salt together in small bowl. Whisk in flour and cornstarch until batter is smooth. Transfer to a shallow dish.

Step 2

Coat skillet or griddle with oil or cooking spray and heat to medium-high. Dip each side of a slice of bread in batter, to coat. Place in skillet and cook until lightly browned on bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook another 3 minutes.

Step 3

Repeat until all slices are cooked, adding a bit more oil between batches if cooking surface begins to dry up.

Step 4

Serve with maple syrup, a sprinkle of nutmeg and for a special holiday treat, a dusting of powdered sugar.
