- This recipe is great for using your day-old bread. Using 1- or 2-day-old bread will make this recipe better.
- You can use 1 egg instead of 4 tbsp apple puree in this recipe.
- You can use other plant-based milk or cream instead of almond milk or soy cream. Coconut cream and soy milk work well with this recipe.
