Description
It's incredibly easy to turn my banana bread into French Toast and all it takes is 3 ingredients! Also, I made a simple and buttery banana sryup to top it off.
Ingredients
Scale
For the French Toast
4 slices banana bread (1/2 of one loaf)
1 egg
½ tsp cinnamon
1 cup almond milk (or milk of choice)
For the Banana Syrup
1 small ripe banana
½ cup water*** (approximately)
1 tbsp cane sugar
Instructions
For the French Toast:
- Whisk egg and cinnamon together in a bowl.
- Slowly whisk while incorporating milk.
- In a shallow container, arrange sliced banana bread in a single layer. You can use a baking sheet for this, a large plate, or whatever you have.
- Pour liquid over slices, refrigerate for 10 minutes.
- Cook bread on medium-high heat for 5-7 minutes on each side in melted butter.
For the Banana Syrup:
- Slice the bananas.
- Use a small saucepan to melt butter on low heat. Add bananas, cooking until bananas have browned slightly.
- Add water, sugar, and vanilla extract.
- Simmer slowly on low heat for 15 minutes (uncovered) until bananas have decreased in size, and liquid has thickened in consistency.
- Use to top on banana bread french toast, ice cream, or other dessert of your choice!
Notes
**You may need a bit more water for the syrup depending on how quickly the it evaporates.
