Ingredients

French Toast

  • 4 slices bread of choice
  • 3/4 cup plant-based milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1/2 tablespoon shredded coconut, unsweetened (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tablespoon soft margarine or butter

Caramelized Banana

  • 1 medium banana
  • 1/2 tablespoon soft margarine or coconut oil
  • 1 tablespoon orange juice

For the Sandwich

  • Peanut Butter
  • Jam of choice
  • Raspberries
  • Granola

Instructions

Make the French Toast

  • Heat the margarine/butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, coconut and vanilla. Dip the bread until evenly coated and place on the heated skillet in a single layer. Cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until lightly golden. Set aside.

Caramelized bananas

  • Meanwhile, prepare the caramelized bananas: Heat the margarine/butter in a small non-stick skillet over medium heat. Layer the sliced bananas and sprinkle with orange juice. Cook for 2 minutes on each side until caramelized and softened. Set aside.

Assemble the Sandwich

  • Spread your desired amount of peanut butter and jam and two of the french toast slices. Top with caramelized bananas, raspberries and granola. Close the sandwich and enjoy immediately.

Notes

If you want to skip a step, simply use fresh bananas instead of caramelized bananas.
I don't keep orange juice in the house, so I like to use juice from a fresh orange.
I used salted organic peanut butter, but natural peanut butter will work too.
I used Crofter's fruit-sweetened strawberry jam, but feel free to use your favorite jam.
I made this date-sweetened granola in advance to use in this recipe, but you can use any store-bought granola to make it easier.
This sandwich is better eaten with a fork, like French toasts.
