Pie Iron Peanut Butter and Jelly French Toast image

We set out to make a stuffed French toast that is easy to prepare on a cookout using a pie iron but doesn't require space in your cooler for perishables. What we came up with was exactly that - and also vegan, for a delicious double whammy!

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 very ripe banana
One 13.6-ounce can unsweetened coconut milk (see Cook's Note)
Kosher salt
8 slices vegan sandwich bread (see Cook's Note)
1/4 cup peanut butter
1/4 cup jam or jelly in your favorite flavor
4 tablespoons coconut oil
Fresh berries, for topping
Confectioner's sugar, for topping
Maple syrup or honey, for topping

Steps:

  • Prepare a campfire or a charcoal grill for medium-high heat. Put a square pie iron on the fire to preheat.
  • Smash the banana with a fork until as smooth as possible in a rimmed pie pan or wide food-storage container. Stir in the coconut milk and a pinch of salt until completely combined. Put 2 slices of bread on a work surface and spread one with 1 tablespoon peanut butter and the other with 1 tablespoon jam or jelly, leaving a half-inch border on each. Sandwich the slices together and then dip into the banana mixture until well coated, about 2 seconds per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Carefully remove the pie iron from the fire. Open the iron and add 1 tablespoon of the coconut oil, swirling it around both sides to coat completely. Add the sandwich to the pie iron and close it. Place the iron back in the fire and cook until browned on the outside and heated through, 3 to 4 minutes, turning and rotating every few seconds. Remove the iron from the fire and transfer the French toast to a plate. Top with berries and confectioner's sugar and syrup. Repeat with the remaining ingredients, coating the pie iron with coconut oil before adding the sandwich.

I'm not a fan of peanut butter and jelly, so I tried this recipe with Nutella and bananas instead. It was amazing!

This recipe is way too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less peanut butter and jelly.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my french toast didn't cook evenly. Some parts were burnt and other parts were still raw.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my french toast turned out dry and tough.
