Ingredients
- 8 slices bread thick-cut, (such as brioche or French bread)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 ripe bananas sliced
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 1/4 cup dark rum (optional)
- Maple syrup for serving
- Powdered sugar for garnish
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to make the French toast batter.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and grease with butter or cooking spray.
- Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, making sure to coat both sides, then place it on the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining bread slices.
- In a separate skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and stir until it dissolves.
- Add the sliced bananas to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, until they start to soften.
- If using rum, carefully add it to the skillet and let it flambe (ignite) to burn off the alcohol. Be cautious when doing this.
- Serve the French toast topped with the warm bananas Foster mixture.
- Drizzle with maple syrup and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
- Enjoy!
