Vegan Banana French Toast image

Silken tofu and almond milk give this easy vegan French toast its creamy, custardy texture. A double dose of bananas makes a sweet start to the day. This breakfast recipe works best with day-old bread. If using a fresh baguette, let soak in custard for half the time.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 small banana (4 ounces), plus more sliced for serving
6 ounces silken tofu (3/4 cup)
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup, plus more for serving
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1 baguette (8 to 10 ounces), preferably day-old, cut on a bias into 1-inch-thick slices
2 to 3 tablespoons coconut oil, for cooking

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine banana, tofu, maple syrup, almond milk, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Blend until smooth. Transfer to a large shallow dish.
  • Working in batches, soak bread in banana mixture 3 to 4 minutes per side. Melt 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a medium nonstick skillet over medium heat. Lift bread from banana mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Cook bread, flipping once, until a golden crust forms, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Keep warm in oven while cooking remaining batches. Repeat with remaining bread, adding more coconut oil for each batch. Serve topped with bananas and maple syrup.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover bananas. I always have a few bananas that are about to go bad, and this is a great way to use them up.
