French Toast with Caramelised Banana

French toast, a classic weekend breakfast. Topped with caramelised banana, sliced almonds and maple syrup - you can't go wrong!

 

Ingredients:

2 Tbsp cornstarch 
½ cup oat mylk
2 tsp coconut sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
4 pieces of old sourdough*, sliced
Butter (or vegan butter), to grease pan

Toppings:

2 bananas, sliced lengthways
Maple syrup*
Sliced almonds
Icing sugar
Pinch of flakey sea salt 

Method:

In a bowl, add cornstarch and mylk and whisk together until there are no clumps. Add the coconut sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon and whisk again to combine.

Next, heat a large pan over medium heat.

Add your bread slices to the batter and soak on each side for 5 or so seconds. It should be completely coated but not soggy.

Add a bit of butter or vegan butter to a medium heat non-stick pan and place 2 slices of bread in the pan. Cook for approx. 3 minutes on low-medium heat, or until the underside is golden brown, then flip and cook for a further 3 minutes on that side, or until both sides are golden brown. Repeat until all the bread is done.

Top with desired toppings, or to follow our preferred option - add 2 Tbsp of maple syrup to a hot pan then place the sliced bananas in the pan. Cook on each side for approximately 2 minutes, or until caramelised. Lay the bananas on top of your french toast, drizzle with more maple syrup, sprinkle with sliced almonds, icing sugar and a pinch of flakey sea salt. Enjoy!
