Equipment
- 1 Non Stick Skillet / Frying Pan
Ingredients
- 1 large banana
- 1 large eggs
- ¼ cup (60 ml) milk
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 4 slices bread , slightly stale (see notes)
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- In a shallow dish mash the banana until smooth. Add the eggs, milk, cinnamon and vanilla and whisk vigorously. Alternatively, you can place the ingredients in a jug and use a stick/immersion blender for a few seconds to mix the eggs and banana well.
- Pre heat a large non stick skillet / frying pan over medium heat.
- Dunk one slice of bread in the banana egg mixture, coating both sides. Remove and allow any excess mixture to drip back into the dish.
- Add butter to the pan and once melted, place the bread slice in the pan. Repeat with more slices to fill the pan but make sure the pan isn't overcrowded.
- Cook for 2-3 mins on each side until the surface is golden.
- Add remaining butter and repeat with remaing slices.

Notes
Bread: Slightly stale bread is best as fresh bread tends to soak up the mixture too fast, causing the French toast to be soggy inside. Use your preferred bread but opt for thicker slices. The number of slices will vary depending on the type, size and thickness of bread.
