What you need:
- ½ cup coconut milk
- ½ cup tofu, mashed
- 2 tbsp Meridian Smooth Almond Butter
- 1½ tbsp maple syrup
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp ground flax seed
- 4 slices thick, crusty bread (preferably a day or two old)
To serve:
- Raspberry chia jam or raspberry jam
- Meridian Smooth Almond Butter
- Coconut yoghurt
- Fresh raspberries
- Flaked almonds
- Maple syrup
Serves: 2
Instructions:
-
To make your French toast batter, blend together the milk, almond butter, tofu, maple syrup, cinnamon and vanilla until smooth. Pour into a large mixing bowl, then stir in the flax. Set aside for 10 minutes.
-
In the meantime, preheat a griddle pan on a medium heat. Brush lightly with coconut oil. Alternatively, you can melt some coconut oil (around 1-2 tsp) in a regular frying pan.
-
Soak each slice of your bread (on both sides) in the mixture for around 20 seconds.
-
Place the bread on your griddle or pan and fry until golden (2-4 minutes). Flip and repeat on the remaining side, with all of your bread.
-
Serve warm slathered with almond butter and jam and topped with berries, coconut yoghurt, maple syrup and flaked almonds.
