Ingredients to Make Your Morning Magical
Here’s what you’ll need to whip together this heavenly dish:
- 4 slices of thick bread (Challah or brioche work wonders)
- 2 ripe bananas, sliced
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Butter (for frying, and let’s be honest, a generous amount)
- Maple syrup (lots of it, because why not?)
Let the Magic Begin!
Ready to change your breakfast game? Let’s get cooking:
- First, in a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. This is where the magic starts to happen; whisk like nobody’s watching!
- Next, heat a skillet over medium heat and melt a pat of butter, letting it get all bubbly and inviting.
- Dip those slices of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring each slice is well coated. Then, place them onto the skillet with the butter. Fry until golden brown on each side—about 3-4 minutes per side. You want them crispy and delicious!
- While the bread is frying, add a splash more butter to another pan and toss in those sliced bananas. Sprinkle with a bit more brown sugar and cook until the bananas are soft and caramelized—about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the French toast is done, stack it high on a plate, and generously top with those glorious caramelized bananas. Drizzle with maple syrup, and maybe a little extra butter for good measure. Why not? You deserve it!
And there you have it! This Bananas Foster French Toast is the ultimate way to start your day feeling like a breakfast champion. Serve it up, dig in, and remember to share... or not. Some things are just too delicious to share!
