Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup split mung beans, rinsed
  • 1/2 teaspoon black salt (this ingredient is very important)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon Spanish paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon tapioca powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened plant milk (I like oat)
  • 1 cup water
  • Oil or plant-based butter, for cooking
  • 1 loaf of stale bread, sliced 1/2 inch thick
  • Plant-based butter, for topping
  • Maple syrup, for topping 

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients except the bread to a high-speed blender. This mixture will serve as your “egg” mix.
  • Place sauté pan on a medium flame and drizzle in the fat of your choosing, such as plant-based butter, oil, or nonstick spray.
  • Dredge bread slices in your “egg” mix, then place in the hot pan and sprinkle cinnamon to your liking over the top. Cook for approximately 1 minute, then gently turn and repeat.
  • Top the french toast with a plant-based butter and generously drizzle warm maple syrup. You can dress up this dish any way you’d like.
