French Toast

Bananas Foster Topping

Method

French Toast Preparation

  1. 1

    Whisk Ingredients

    In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.

  2. 2

    Dip Bread

    Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Allow excess to drip off.

  3. 3

    Cook French Toast

    In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the soaked bread slices and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and keep warm.

Bananas Foster Topping Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare Bananas

    Peel and slice the ripe bananas into thick rounds.

  2. 5

    Melt Butter and Sugar

    In the same skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the brown sugar and cinnamon, stirring until the mixture is bubbly.

  3. 6

    Add Bananas

    Gently fold in the sliced bananas and cook for about 2-3 minutes until they are tender.

  4. 7

    Add Rum

    Carefully add the dark rum to the skillet. If desired, ignite the rum to flambé, then allow the flames to subside. This step adds flavor but is optional.

Serving

  1. 8

    Assemble Dish

    To serve, place two slices of French toast on a plate, spoon the bananas foster topping generously over the toast, and sprinkle with chopped walnuts or pecans.

    Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
