French Toast

I made this for Sam last weekend, and I made it for Liam once and they both really like it.

-1/2 can of coconut milk.
-8 oz plain soy/almond/hemp/whatever milk
-cinnamon to taste
-a ripe banana
-sweetener (maple syrup, agave, or sugar) to taste
-sourdough bread is the best i think (whole foods' snappy sourdough is vegan, but you can use whatever you have)
-maple syrup
-earth balance/vegan buttery spread

In a shallow container mix everything together, mashing the banana (or, if the banana isn't super-ripe-- food processing it). Add sweetener to taste. I don't like my toast to be super sweet, so I usually only use about a tablespoon of syrup to sweeten it, then usually change my mind and drown it in syrup later.

melt some butter in a non-stick skillet on medium-high heat and fry up the bread after dipping both sides in the batter until golden brown. if you don't use non-stick, you will hate your life, because even with nonstick, mine sometimes sticks. keep adding butter while you fry up more bread.

goes well with tofu scramble, home fries, and a long nap.
