Banana Stuffed French Toast
After this, you’ll never want traditional French toast ever again. And this is the perfect way to use up those spotty bananas!
Ingredients
- 2 bananas, peeled and thinly sliced
- 8 slices challah bread
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of nutmeg
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
For the coating
- 2 cups cornflakes, coarsely crushed
- 1 cup Fisher Nuts Pecan Halves, chopped
- 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
Instructions
- To make the coating, combine cornflakes and pecans; set aside.
- Divide the banana slices among four slices of the bread, and then top with remaining bread slices to make 4 sandwiches.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg.
- Working one at a time, dip sandwiches into the egg mixture, then dredge in the cornflakes mixture, pressing to coat.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat.
- Working in batches, add sandwiches to the skillet, 1-2 at a time, and cook until evenly golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Serve immediately, garnished with confectioners’ sugar, if desired.
