Vegan Chia French Toast (High Protein)

Ingredients:
1 heaping Tbsp Chia seeds (whole or ground into a fine meal so they're undetectable)
1/2 Tbsp agave nectar, honey or maple syrup 
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
4-5 slices slightly dry Dave's bread or Ezekiel bread (it's important to use a sturdy, rustic bread or it can turn out soggy/soft)

Instructions:
Mix all ingredients except the bread in a large, shallow bowl. Place in the fridge to activate for 10-20 minutes.
Preheat griddle to medium heat (~350 degrees F / 176 C) and grease with 1 Tbsp vegan butter or coconut oil.
Dip each slice of bread in the batter for about 20 seconds on each side. If your bread is dry, leave it in a little longer. If you're using sandwich bread, it should only need 25-30 seconds total to soak.
Place on griddle and cook until golden brown on the underside. Carefully flip and cook until the other side is golden brown as well - 3-4 minutes.
Top with desired toppings: I went with coconut whipped cream, strawberries, and maple syrup.
