Bruléed Banana

Serving

Method

Prepare Blueberry Sauce

  1. 1

    Cooking the Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.

Bruléed Banana

  1. 2

    Bruléing the Banana

    Slice the banana in half lengthwise and place it cut-side up on a heat-proof surface. Sprinkle brown sugar evenly over the surface and use a kitchen torch to caramelize the sugar until golden brown. Set aside.

Prepare French Toast

  1. 3

    Mix Egg Mixture

    In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.

  2. 4

    Cook French Toast

    Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each slice of brioche into the egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then place in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
