Description
Golden brown granola-crusted vegan French toast topped with caramelized candied peaches.
Ingredients
French Toast:
- 4 slices thick bread (slightly stale or sourdough work best so it doesn’t get soggy), cut into triangles
- 1/2 block firm tofu (approx 6 oz.)
- 1 cup plant-based milk
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 – 1 tbsp vanilla (I like a lot of vanilla)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 cups crushed granola
- oil or vegan butter for frying
Candied Peaches:
- 4Â peaches, pitted and sliced
- 4 tbsp vegan butter
- 4 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Start by making the batter: add the tofu, plant-based milk, sugar, vanilla and cinnamon to a blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour batter into a shallow bowl. Pour granola into second shallow bowl. Place near the stove so you can dip and quickly get it into the pan (to avoid soggy granola).
- Heat a frying pan to medium heat and add a few tablespoons of vegan butter or oil. When it starts to sizzle, dip a slice of bread into the batter, then quickly dip the other side. Dip in the granola and then place in the pan. Cook a few minutes per side until golden brown. Repeat with the rest of the bread.
- To a frying pan on medium-high heat, add the vegan butter and brown sugar. When butter is sizzling, add the peaches and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes or until peaches are coated in syrup and softened.
- Top french toast slices with peaches and caramel sauce. Serve and enjoy!
