Ingredients

  • 8 slices bread I used Ezekiel
  • 1 small-medium banana peeled
  • 2 Tbsp hemp seeds + 1 1/4 cup water or 1 1/4 cup milk of choice
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch cardamom
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla powder or extract
  • 1/2 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 Tbsp coconut oil
  • 1/2 granola I used this recipe minus the dried fruit
  • 1/2 cup fresh fruit for garnish
  • Berry Maple Syrup:
  • 1/2 cup berries fresh or frozen (if frozen make sure they are thawed)
  • 2 Tbsp pure maple syrup

Instructions

  1. For the french toast:
  2. Add the banana, hemp, water (or milk), chia seeds, and spices into a blender.
  3. Blend until liquefied.
  4. Pour into a shallow bowl and left sit about 5 minutes while the chia thickens a bit to a batter consistency.
  5. Heat a griddle or saute pan over medium heat.
  6. Add 1/2 tsp coconut oil to the pan or enough to lightly coat the bottom so the bread doesn't stick.
  7. If you are using thin bread just dip the bread into the batter for 2 seconds, just enough time to coat the bread in the batter. (if the bread is thicker you may need to wait a couple more seconds but be sure not to let it soak or you will get a soggy end result.)
  8. Add the bread to the pan.
  9. Cook 3-5 minutes on first side until browned.
  10. With a spatula pick up the bread and add a little more coconut oil to the pan to prevent sticking.
  11. Flip the bread and cook another 3-5 minutes.
  12. Repeat until all of the bread is cooked.
  13. To make the berry maple syrup add the berries and maple syrup to a blender and blend until the berries are pureed.
  14. Top the french toast with berry maple syrup, sprinkle with granola, and top with fresh fruit.
