Vegan French Toast with Caramelized Bananas





This recipe uses gluten-free bread and a vegan batter so that everyone at the table can enjoy a slice. Top with caramelized bananas for an extra-decadent breakfast.
Typically, gluten-free bread leaves a lot to be desired, but this batter of almond milk, pureed banana, and chia seeds transforms any sad slice of bread into a star.
In fact, this dish is so delicious you could fool any French toast aficionado into believing you used regular dairy milk and eggs!
