Delicious way to start your day!

Morning!

Okay, okay, so I don't only make treatz, this morning I cooked up a batch of vegan French toast served with organic grapes and a drizzle of Agave syrup, yum! Taste test is 10/10!

RECIPE

2 medium bananas
2/3 cup soymilk
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
4 slices bread, I used French Meadow organic flax and sunflower seed bread.
Blend bananas, soymilk, maple syrup, cinnamon, and arrowroot powder until smooth.
Pour into a flat, shallow dish and soak bread slices 1 minute on each side.
Transfer carefully to a skillet, which has been oiled. Cook first side until lightly browned and crispish, about 3 minutes, then turn and cook second side until browned. We kept our griddle on 375, 400.
Serve with fresh fruit, fruit preserves, or maple syrup.
I doubled the recipe and got enough batter for you and all your teen vegan (or non vegan) friends for a brunch on the weekend. Get creative, serve with powdered sugar, cashew whip cream, maple syrup or agave syrup, and strawberries!
Bon appitiet
