Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Dip the sandwiches in the batter quickly—just enough to coat both sides—so the bread doesn't absorb too much liquid. Using thick-sliced bread also helps maintain structure.
Classic options like powdered sugar, maple syrup, or banana slices are perfect. You can also add crushed nuts, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra indulgence.

- In a small bowl, mix the flax seed meal and hot water together until a very thick paste forms.
- Add the flax mixture, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon to a bowl. Whisk until completely combined.
