Cinnamon French Toast

Makes 3 servings      

This French toast recipe, inspired by Dreena Burton, has very simple, whole, plant-based ingredients. It whips up in no time flat with a blender. Very ripe bananas add just the right amount of sweetness, so there is no need for added sugar!

Ingredients:

9 slices whole-wheat bread (3 slices per serving)

2 small bananas, very ripe

¾ cup plant-based milk, unsweetened (we use soy)

1½ teaspoons flaxseed meal

1½ tablespoons hemp seeds

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

⅛ teaspoon vanilla powder (or ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract)

⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric

1. Preheat your griddle to medium-high heat (425°F, if you can set the temp).
2. Add all ingredients except for the bread slices to a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour the batter into a wide bowl.
3. Dip both sides of the bread into the batter. Be sure not to oversaturate the bread.
4. Place onto the preheated griddle. Cook for 5 minutes or until golden brown. Flip each slice over and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
5. Remove toast and serve as desired. Enjoy!
