“How Could You Be So…Eggless”- Vegan French Toast
Okay, so I absolutely love breakfast/brunch. If I could, I would have breakfast for every meal of the day. I’m a sucker for giant pancakes smothered in warm maple syrup, waffles dripping with whipped cream and strawberry topping and of course cinnamon french toast!
Since I’m toying with the idea of becoming vegan upon my return from my Florida vacation, I started thinking about what I was going start eating for my meals. Then it hit me. I wouldn’t be able to have some of these breakfast favorites after turning vegan. This idea did not fly with me.
So, I decided to do my best to create vegan french toast. All I have to say is, SUCCESS! This girl will not have to get restrain from a delish slice of french toast in the morning!
What You Need (Serves 1):
2 Slices of Bread (I use Sprouted Bread from Trader Joe’s)
1/4 Brick of Tofu
1/2-3/4 Cup Squash Mixture
2 Tbsp. Apple Sauce
3/4 Cup Soy or Almond Milk
1 Tbsp. Agave Nectar (Optional)
1 Tsp. Vanilla Extract
Cinnamon (to taste)
1. Blend all ingredients in a bowl until well combined (use a blender or can be done by hand). The mixture should be smooth and sort of liquidy (sorry for the vague description).
2. Start heating your fry pan on medium heat. Grease with Earth Balance or PAM. While pan is heating, pour the mixture into a shallow dish. Place one slice of bread into the mixture and coat both sides of the bread. Do not let it soak too long or it will fall apart.
3. Place the coated slice into the hot pan and allow to brown on both sides. Repeat with the second slice. Serve with warm agave or maple syrup and fresh berries from the Farmer’s Market!
