Equipment

1 Lodge Cast Iron Griddle

Ingredients

4 slices bread (I use gluten-free bread)
1 tablespoon coconut oil

Strawberry Sauce

1 1/2 cup strawberries hulled and chopped
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1 teaspoon vanilla

French Toast Batter

1/2 cup almond milk
1 ripe banana
1 tablespoon cornstarch (non-GMO)
1 teaspoon vanilla
Pinch of salt

Additional Toppings

strawberries
blueberries
fresh mint leaves to garnish

Instructions

First, toast bread slices and set aside.

Prepare Strawberry Sauce

Prepare the strawberry sauce by placing the strawberries in a saucepan, along with maple syrup, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla.
Bring to boil over medium heat, crush some of the strawberries to thicken the sauce, then reduce to simmer for about 3 minutes. Turn off heat and set aside.

Prepare French Toast Batter

Blend almond milk, banana, cornstarch, vanilla, and salt, and pour the batter into a shallow dish.
Dip bread slices on both sides one at a time in the batter, until soaked through. Heat griddle on medium heat and brush with coconut oil.
Transfer each slice of bread to the griddle and cook until golden brown on each side, for about 1-2 minutes. Serve topped with a generous helping of strawberry sauce and a dollop of coconut whipped cream. Garnish with fresh strawberries, blueberries, and mint leaves for a truly gourmet experience.
