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

Welcome!

Welcome to Vegan Treatz, my blog all about veganism! From recipes, to companies, and whats really in those nasty dairy by-products! Who am I? I'm a teenager in the big apple, I've been a vegetarian all my life (thank you hippy parents) and a vegan for 4 1/2 years. This is great blog for vegan teens who, like me, don't just blindly shove a Pop-Tart into the toaster (do you have any idea whats in those things?) But for teens who love cooking and baking vegan goodies. If I bake it and I love it the recipe will be here before the diary-free cupcakes cool.
Veganism is the diet of the future. And we teens are the next generation. So read, bake, comment, and enjoy.

'Till next time,
Wild Spice.
