Banana Bread French Toast - A weekend or weekday favorite

Becca's is a big fan of Sunday Morning breakfasts but we also really like to relax a bit on the weekends. This is one of our favorite recipes for a quick and delicious breakfast. You can use Becca's Walnut banana bread leftover from the week or the household favorite Chocolate chip banana bread for this recipe. We usually start a new loaf for it and you can slice across or lengthwise for this treat. It is also a great brunch dish and easy dessert recipe. 

Banana Bread Bread French Toast
Recipe:
1 Loaf Becca's Gourmet Goodies Chocolate Chip Banana Bread or Walnut Banana Bread
3 Eggs
2 Tablespoons Half and Half or Milk
1 tsp vanilla
Butter

Mix eggs, half and half and vanilla using a whisk or fork until fully combined. Slice banana bread into slices about an inch thick. Using a griddle or pan with large open surface melt the butter over medium heat. Dip slices into egg mixture and griddle 1-2 minutes until golden brown. Flip and crisp on the other side of the bread. Serve warm with butter. We like a touch of maple syrup as well.

Other options:

  • Serve with berries and whipped cream for a lighter brunch dish. 
  • Add a touch of liquor or extra vanilla to the mix then serve with ice cream for a fun quick dessert. Drizzle with Becca's Chocolate Noir or Caramel Sauce.
  • Slice thinner for a crunchier french toast and layer with berries or sliced fresh fruit. Top with whipped cream or powdered sugar.
