Author: The Edgy Veg
Recipe type: Breakfast
Cuisine: French
Serves: 6 sandwiches
Ingredients
- ½ cup almond milk
- 2 Tbsp VEGAN butter, melted + extra for frying
- 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 loaf of sourdough bread, sliced (Make sure to read the ingredients)
- ¼ block of silken tofu
- 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Filling
- Peanut Butter
- Raspberry Jam
- Sprinkling & topping
- Cinnamon
- Maple syrup
- Organic Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Melt the butter i a small pot over medium heat (or in a microwave).
- Mix together the melted butter, almond milk, coconut sugar, silken tofu, nutritional yeast, and vanilla in a food processor or high speed blender until smooth and creamy. Add more nutritional yeast to taste, and transfer to a large bowl.
- Take two pieces of bread and spread jam on one side and peanut butter on the other to create a PB & J sandwich.
- Heat a large frying pan (cast iron or non-stick work best) over med-high heat and melt a tbsp or two of butter.
- Dip your PB & J sandwich in the tofu mixture and coat generously on both sides.
- Place the sandwich onto the now heated butter coasted pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on both sides, or until golden brown. Tip: I also like to cook the flat part of the sandwich by standing it upright for about 2 minutes, or until crispy.
- Remove from the pan and serve with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or berry coulis, and a side of veggie sausage and a Mimosa!
Notes
Try swapping out the tofu for pumpkin puree for a season fall treat!
