Specialty Recipe

Banana-Filled French Toast

Ingredients

1 loaf of bread (French bread, unsliced)

2 bananas (not overripe)

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/4 cup pecans (optional)

3 large eggs

3/4 cup milk or cream

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/4 cup unsalted butter

This is the best recipe and quite easy. All you need to start is a loaf of purchased French bread...unsliced. Slice the bread into pockets. Don't use the ends. Start slicing the first all way through the loaf, the second only 3/4 of the way (to make a place to stuff your bananas) through, the third all way through and so on. This makes a slice that is hinged.

Slice the bread as we discussed above, each slice being about 1/2 inch (1 inch total). Peel and slice your bananas. Lay the bananas in the pocket, and sprinkle brown sugar/nut mixture on top. Mix together eggs, milk and vanilla. Dip each french toast piece into egg mixture and place into skillet with melted butter. Fry until brown. Add more butter if it runs low. It is best to cook these in a smaller skillet to keep the butter from smoking, so keep the French toast warm in oven if you are cooking for a crowd.

Enjoy these wonderful banana toasts with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or even whipped cream.
