Instructions
For the French Toast
- Step 1
In a large shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk. Add in the cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk lightly until fully combined.
- Step 2
Over medium heat, spray a large skillet with cooking spray. Place the slices of bread in the egg mixture and let soak on each side for a few seconds. Sprinkle in more cinnamon to the mixture as needed (I find that a lot of the cinnamon gets stuck on the side of the dish sometimes).
- Step 3
Cook the bread in the skillet for ~4 minutes on each side or until it’s nice and golden brown. Set aside.
For the Banana Topping
- Step 4
Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Once melted, mix in the brown sugar, vanilla, rum and cinnamon. Bring to a simmer and then add in the bananas and nuts.
- Step 5
Cook the bananas for 4 minutes, flip, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until they’re caramelized on both sides. Be sure to watch the pan and gently move the bananas around a little so that they don’t stick.
- Step 6
Spread the bananas evenly across the tops of the French toast. Serve with a drizzle of maple syrup and ENJOY!
Notes
- Step 7
If you happen to have leftovers, store the French toast and topping separately. Each will keep well in airtight containers, in the fridge, for up to about 3 days.
