Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 loaf banana bread
1¼ cup whole milk
¼ cup french vanilla coffee creamer ((optional) you can substitute this with milk)
5 large eggs
2 tsp ground cinnamon
¼ cup sugar
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
3 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla bean paste
½ cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Spray your baking dish with baking spray (cooking spray with flour) or butter it very well.
  • Break your banana bread into bite size (but not too small) pieces and place in the dish

  • Pour egg mixture evenly over the banana bread pieces. Pat down the pieces that are on the top so they absorb some of the egg mixture.
  • Now, cover securely and refrigerate overnight or for at least several hours.
  • Remove casserole dish from refrigerator and uncover.
  • In a separate bowl or measuring cup with a spout, melt butter, and stir in brown sugar and vanilla bean paste.

  • Chop pecans and sprinkle over banana bread.
  • Bake at 375°, on convection, for 30 minutes. Check at 30 minutes and as long as it doesn't look like it has gotten too dark, let it cook another 5-8 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and slice fresh banana over casserole, tucking bananas throughout. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm. Optional toppings: pancake syrup or whipped cream, Nutella, or chocolate syrup

BANANA FRENCH TOAST



Banana French Toast image

Why wait for the weekend to enjoy French toast when you can whip up this irresistible banana enriched breakfast in practically no time.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup fat-free milk (skim)
1 large egg
1 tablespoon light-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Coarse salt
1/2 tablespoon butter
4 slices whole-wheat sandwich bread
1 banana
4 teaspoons pure maple syrup

Steps:

  • In a large shallow bowl, whisk together milk, egg, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
  • Dip bread, one slice at a time, into egg mixture, pressing down so bread absorbs liquid. In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Place all 4 slices in skillet; cook 2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
  • Meanwhile, cut banana crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Divide bread between two plates; top with banana and syrup. Serve.

Tips:

  • To make the banana French toast bake ahead of time, assemble the casserole and refrigerate it overnight. In the morning, bake it according to the recipe instructions. This is a great option for busy mornings or weekend brunch.
  • If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking dish, you can use a slightly smaller or larger dish. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
  • You can use any type of bread for this recipe, but a sturdy bread like challah or French bread works best. Avoid using a very soft bread, as it will become too mushy when soaked in the custard.
  • Feel free to add your favorite spices to the custard, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin pie spice. You can also add a teaspoon of vanilla extract or almond extract for extra flavor.
  • If you like a crispy topping, sprinkle the top of the casserole with brown sugar before baking. You can also add a dollop of butter or a drizzle of maple syrup to each serving.

Conclusion:

This banana French toast bake is an easy and delicious breakfast or brunch recipe that is perfect for a crowd. It's also a great way to use up leftover bananas. With its creamy custard, sweet bananas, and crispy topping, this casserole is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
