Serves: 1 | Total Cooking Time: 20 minutes
Ingredients
1 medium banana (approx 80-100g)
120ml unsweetened plant milk
1 tsp sweet ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1 tbsp (15g-20g) ground milled flaxseeds
120-140g rustic wholegrain bread (gluten-free as needed)
Optional Toppings:
Maple syrup
Fresh fruit
Instructions
In a large but shallow bowl, mash the banana into a puree and mix in the milk, flaxseeds and spices. If you have access to a blender, you can make this step quicker by simply blitzing everything together.
Allow the mixture to thicken for 5 minutes. Meanwhile slice your bread into even-sized sticks.
Once thickened, place your breadsticks into the shallow bowl and allow the bread to soak up the banana mixture for another 5 minutes before turning them over to soak again on the other side.
Lightly coat a frying pan with oil and heat up on medium heat (I tend to place a little oil on a piece of kitchen roll and rub the inside of the frying pan to lightly coat it). Transition the soaked bread sticks onto the frying pan, leaving them to cook per side for 3-5 minutes before flipping them over (if you try to flip them too soon, the mixture with just come away from the bread and stick to the pan).
Once all are cooked, serve on a plate with some fresh fruit and a drizzle of maple syrup.
Enjoy! Lots & lots of love.
