Veggies Don't Bite

1 Mix flax, almond meal, nutritional yeast, maple syrup, milk, vanilla and pumpkin in a deep dish good for dipping bread slices in. Using a fork or whisk mix well. Place in refrigerator so ingredients can set. You can also do this the night before.
2 Meanwhile wash and chop apples. Place coconut butter in a pan over low heat and begin melting it. Add in water, apples and cinnamon and cover to cook until soft. About 10-15 minutes depending on how al dente you like your apples. You can add more water if they get too dry. Add in pecans and mix well. Turn of heat.
3 Meanwhile, remove French toast dip from fridge. Prepare French toast by quickly dipping slices of bread into mixture then cooking on a griddle or omelet pan until browned on each side, about 5-7 minutes for each. It sets more as it cools so don’t worry if browned on the outside but still soft in the middle.
4 While pieces are cooking, make the deep flavored icing by putting all ingredients into a small bowl or pot. Warm in microwave or stove top and whisk continuously until combined well and becomes melted and runny. 
5 Make the lighter flavored option by following the directions from my Pumpkin Molasses Cupcake recipe but add an extra ½ cup of milk.
6 Serve with sautéed apples and drizzle with icing!
