Baked French Toast, originally uploaded by speedvegan.

I sometimes try recipes that I find on other cooking blogs. I usually end up changing them around a bit to fit my taste. This recipe was inspired by a recipe I found on the Eat Air blog. When I first saw it, I knew Jose would love it. Even though I can’t have more than a bite, the aroma of cinnamon sugar in the house was totally worth it !

1 french baguette, sliced
1/2 cup vanilla soy milk
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp chickpea (garbanzo bean) flour
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg

Topping:
2 tbsp non-hydrogenated vegan margerine, softened
1/4 cup sugar or substitute
1 tbsp agave nectar or maple syrup
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Place bread slices in a greased 8×8 glass baking dish.

3. Mix the rest of the French Toast ingredients and pour over ALL the slices. Set aside.

4. To make the topping, mix together margarine and sugar in a large bowl until creamy.

5. Add agave nectar/maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix until smooth, then fold in the walnuts.

6. Spread topping over bread slices evenly. Bake for 30 minutes. Allow to cool before serving or burn your tongue !
