Banana French Toast Recipe
Okay, first of all: What is it? Is is a banana stuffed french toast is it banana bread, what is it? None of that. It’s pretty much french toast, but the batter is made with banana and it’s very tasty!
Banana French Toast Ingredients
To make a banana French toast you don’t need much really:
- some bread
- an old banana
- an egg
- coconut oil or butter
- vanilla or cinnamon or both
How To Make Banana French Toast
Batter. The first thing you need to do is prepare the batter for your toast. You mash a banana until it’s very smooth and no lumps appear. Then you add an egg and some cinnamon and vanilla. If you would like you can also add some milk of choice to that batter. You whisk all that together and you’re ready to
…Dip. Dip your slices of bread in that batter, making sure to coat well everywhere. Don’t let the toast soak too long in the batter, because it will start to fall apart.
Fry. Then it’s time to heat up a pan, add some coconut oil and start “toasting” your banana French toast. You’ll actually be frying it for a few minutes on each side until nicely golden brown. Keep the temperature low-medium to prevent your toast from getting too dark too soon.
Serve with some honey or fruit of choice and enjoy!
And that is it! It’s simple, it’s delicious and it’s very easy to make!
Tips
As you can see, I failed to remove the lumps from my bananas and this then lead to uneven coating and to my toast getting too dark in some areas and underdone in others. The next time I made it I used a hand blender for the batter and it lead to a smoother texture of the batter and better, more even coating of the bread – so something to keep in mind!
