We used to love this stuff called "eggy bread", but it's not very vegan...so we decided to make a healthy vegan recipe using banana instead. It's a really simple technique but like lots of vegan innovation and BOSH! recipes, it's exciting and unique! If you're after a tasty vegan breakfast idea that's special but quite healthy, this Banana French Toast could be the one for you!This recipe is from our plant-based cookbook: BOSH!
