Banana-Stuffed Aquafaba French Toast

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil. Spread half of the bread slices with the peanut butter (if using). Top with the banana slices and the remaining bread slices.

Step 2

Drain the chickpeas, reserving ½ cup of the liquid. (Cover and chill chickpeas for up to 3 days for another use.) Whisk the reserved chickpea liquid in a shallow dish until foamy. Whisk in the almond milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Dip sandwiches into milk mixture for 10 seconds, turning once. Place on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until firm and light brown, turning once. Top with sliced fruit and Aquafaba Whipped Cream; sprinkle with cinnamon. Drizzle with maple syrup (if using).
