Ingredients

For the sweet chocolate-banana spread:

  • ½ block of Soykei extra-firm tofu
  • 6 tablespoons vanilla plant-based yogurt
  • 2½ tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 3½ tablespoons maple syrup
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • Toppings: 2 bananas and freshly grated or shaved chocolate

For the savoury beet spread:

  • ½ block of Soykei extra-firm tofu (about 175g)
  • 1 cup cooked beets (about 3 beets)
  • ½ teaspoon minced garlic or 1 small fresh clove
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons plain yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus a little more as needed
  • 1½ tablespoons lemon juice, plus more to taste
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • Toppings: fresh dill, pistachios, olive oil, and plant-based feta
  • A few slices of bread of your choice

Preparation

  1. Lightly pat the tofu dry, then process all the ingredients (except the toppings and bread) in a food processor until smooth and creamy. A high-powered blender, such as a Vitamix, works best.
  2. Toast your choice of bread, spread with the sweet or savory tofu spread, and top with your choice of toppings.

NOTE:
For the beets, I like to dice them into small cubes, then toss them with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper before baking them for about 30–35 minutes in a 400-degree oven. You can also use store-bought vacuum-sealed cooked beets for a quick option, but note that this may result in a slightly less vibrant color for the spread.

For the caramelized bananas, simply cut them in half lengthwise, then sauté them in a skillet over medium heat for 2–3 minutes with a little maple syrup and a pinch of cinnamon.
