for the batter

Method
 

step-by-step instructions
  1. Prepare the Batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together cornstarch with almond milk until smooth. Incorporate maple syrup, vanilla extract, black salt, ground cinnamon, and mashed banana to form a creamy batter.
  2. Heat the Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a pat of vegan butter to melt and coat the skillet.
  3. Dip the Bread: Soak each slice of bread in the prepared batter for 15–20 seconds per side until adequately coated.
  4. Cook the Toast: Place the coated bread in the skillet and fry for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Serve Warm: Stack the toast on a plate and top with nut butter, fresh fruit, maple syrup, or powdered sugar. Enjoy!
