Vegan French Toast with Tofu

Vegan French toast recipe I created, because I just have yet to find 'the one'. This one is really good. Serve with vegan butter.

Ingredients

• 0.25 cup boiling water
• 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
• 0.5 cup vanilla soy milk
• 0.25 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained
• 1 teaspoon nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 6 slices dense bread
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps

1. Mix boiling water and ground flax seeds together in a bowl; let sit until thickened, about 10 minutes.
2. Combine flax mixture, soy milk, tofu, and nutritional yeast in a blender; blend on high speed until flax has almost disappeared. Add cornstarch while blender is still running and blend until batter is smooth. Pour batter into a bowl and refrigerate until chilled, about 30 minutes.
3. Pour some of the batter into a shallow bowl or plate. Dip bread, 1 slice at a time, into the batter until evenly coated.
4. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook each dipped bread slice in the hot oil for 5 minutes; flip and cook the other side until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes more.
