| ingredients |
|---|
|
¼ cup soy milk made with soy protein |
|
Firm tofu |
|
½ tsp vanilla extract |
|
1 tsp cinnamon |
|
1 tsp nutmeg |
|
1-2 slices of gluten-free bread or spelt sourdough bread |
|
1 tsp of oil for cooking OR cooking oil spray |
|
Maple syrup to serve |
Add the tofu, soy milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon and nutmeg to a blender and process until well combined. If you don't have a blender, just give it a good whisk in a small bowl.
Pour the wet mix into a shallow dish and add the bread. Leave the bread to soak for a minute or so, then flip it over to make sure the other side of the bread is coated.
Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and add oil. When the oil is hot, add the bread to the frying pan. Cook on one side for a few minutes until golden brown, then flip the bread over and cook until the other side is golden brown.
Serve on a plate and top with maple syrup.
