Vegan Tofu French Toast

Jump to Recipe – Print Recipe

This stuff is seriously game changer and DOES NOT taste like tofu, I promise. The tofu along with a little bit of nutritional yeast, really give that custardy feel without the egg. Plus a little extra protein in my french toast? I’m not complaining!
