Banana French Toast

French toast is a weekend go-to when you have a little more time to enjoy your breakfast, but don’t feel like putting a lot of work in. This recipe is perfect for prepping the night before and scheduling to finish in the morning so all you have to do is roll out of bed and make coffee. For banana flavor in every bite, we add overripe bananas to the custard filling and serve the French toast with a butter, brown sugar, and banana sauce.

Ingredients

French Toast

2 large eggs
½ cup brown sugar
4 tbsp melted butter
1 tbsp vanilla extract
2 overripe bananas, mashed
½ cup whole milk
1 tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp nutmeg
¼ tsp salt
10 slices soft sandwich bread
½ cup maple syrup for garnish, optional
1 cup whip cream for garnish, optional

Banana Sauce

2 firm bananas, sliced into rounds
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp melted butter

Directions

1) In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, brown sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and mashed bananas until smooth and creamy. Stir in the milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.

2) Pour half of the mixture into a Suvie pan. Arrange the bread slices in the pan and press down to soak up the liquid.

3) Pour the remaining mixture evenly over the bread and then press lightly to make sure the bread soaks up all of the liquid.

4) In another Suvie pan, combine the fresh banana slices, brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon, and nutmeg.

5) Insert pans into your Suvie, input settings, and cook now or schedule.
