Vegan French Toast

French Toast is a favorite breakfast choice for my husband. On those mornings that I make his classic french toast, I will whip up a batch of this vegan option for myself.

And it's every bit as delicious, if I do say so.

To keep these vegan, I needed to eliminate the two main traditional ingredients - eggs and dairy.

This was an easy fix. I replaced the eggs with flax seed and banana and the dairy with unsweetened almond milk. 

These simple swaps made for a very tasty alternative to the usual egg dipped bread.

Now, onto the recipe:

Vegan French Toast

Serves 4

- 1 Banana, sliced

- 2 tbsp flax seed

- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk

- 2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla

- 8 large slices whole wheat bread

- 1 tbsp coconut oil

Blend banana, flax seed, almond milk, vanilla and cinnamon until smooth. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Heat oil on a griddle. Pour banana mixture into a medium bowl. Dip bread into banana mixture, coating both sides. Place dipped bread onto griddle and cook until browned. Flip over and cook other side.

I have yet to convince my husband to try my version, but I am working on it....you know it's only a matter of time!
