Tips

  • 1: You can serve it with vegan ice cream

  • 2: There are vegan French breads, but it's good to check the composition at your bakery

  • 3: It is not recommended to use sliced bread, as it can fall apart

  • 4: You can use other vegetable milks instead of almond milk

  • 5: In place of Brazil nuts, you can use cashew nuts or walnuts
