Featured recipe from Marilu's twitter…errrr… table * Vegan French toast

Marilu mentioned a vegan French toast recipe on Twitter the other day…

Made the best vegan French toast! Michael and the boys loved it! Now I've got to figure out how to post the recipe!

So here's the recipe! Marilu recommends specific brands so you know just what she made. The bread is especially delicious this way – oat bread is naturally sweet, and it gets a nice crust on the outside and becomes almost custard-y on the inside. The pancake and baking mix is the secret ingredient for the crusty exterior. Extra cinnamon makes the flavor even more awesome.

Serve with additional Earth Balance and a drizzle of pure maple syrup or agave nectar.

Marilu's Vegan French Toast

Blue * Serves 4-5

2 cups rice milk, or other non-dairy milk

3-4 Tablespoons Arrowhead Mills Organic Gluten-Free Pancake and Baking Mix

1 Tablespoon Sucanat

splash of vanilla

8-12 slices of Rudi's Organic Multi-Grain Oat Bread

1/2 teaspoon (plus more) cinnamon

Earth Balance margarine

Mix together the rice milk, pancake mix, Sucanat, vanilla, and cinnamon to form a thin batter. (Stir it as necessary to keep it incorporated.)

Heat a griddle or large frying pan, and melt some Earth Balance on it. Dip bread in the batter (let it soak up a little) and fry in melted Earth Balance. Sprinkle more cinnamon on each side of toast as it cooks.
