Step 1
Mash banana in a large shallow bowl.
Step 2
Add almond milk, flaxseed, cinnamon and stir. If your batter appears extremely gloppy, add more almond milk to thin it out. It should be pourable. (Vanilla is optional.)
Step 3
Let batter rest for 5 minutes while you preheat your griddle or skillet to medium heat.
Step 4
Once your surface is hot, coat generously with vegan butter or coconut oil (I used Earth Balance because I like the flavor).
Step 5
Dip your slices of bread into the batter and let it rest for 5-10 seconds on each side, using your fingers to make sure it's fully submerged. Transfer immediately to griddle. An optional step is to sprinkle the freshly-dipped sides with a little almond meal for added texture.
Step 6
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side or until evenly golden brown. Flip carefully using a sturdy spatula as the banana mixture can be a bit sticky if you're not gentle. If your french toast appears to be browning too quickly or burning, turn down your griddle.
Step 7
Serve immediately with desired toppings. I think peanut butter and maple syrup are all you need here.
