vegan french toast
I made this from Dr. McDougall's Quick & Easy Cookbook. It's a combo of 2 recipes:
1 banana, sliced in chunks
1/2 cup or so rice milk*
cinnamon
little bit vanilla extract
1/2 loaf sourdough baguette sliced thinly
You blend everything but the bread to a liquid mixture and then dunk the bread into the mixture. Cook each side about 2 minutes on a nonstick pan about medium high. You don't need oil or butter. Turned out great. I ate it with pure maple syrup. Yum yum yum.
*You can make even healthier (and cheaper) rice milk yourself by blending cooked brown rice and water, equal parts, and then using cheesecloth to strain out the rice milk. I haven't done it yet but plan to try it sometime. Commercial rice milk has oil of some kind added, I think even the low-fat variety. You can also choose a whole grain low-glycemic bread like rye or pumpernickel although I'm not sure how they'd taste as french toast.
