French Toast Banana Fosters!

The other morning my boyfriend and I decided to try something new, we usually do a big Saturday morning breakfast and decided on french toast, but I wanted to get more creative then that! So what we ended up with was something similar to Banana Foster topping, minus the rum flavoring. 


French Toast:

  • Wheat bread (avg 2 slices per person)
  • eggs (I had 5 eggs for every 8 slices)
  • splash of milk
  • cinnamon
Crack the eggs in a bowl, splash some milk in there, and with a fork pop the yolks and blend it (Kinda of like you would scrambled eggs). Next sprinkle a hefty amount of cinnamon into the eggs mixture. Heat up a pan with a little butter on there, then dip a slice of toast into the egg mix, make sure you get both sides covered and be generous with the cinnamon (each time I soak a slice I sprinkle more cinnamon in)! Throw the slices on the pan and lets the eggs on the outside cook up, then flip! Now on to the good stuff :)

Banana Foster Topping:
  • 6 bananas (not quite fully ripe)
  • 1 cup butter flavored pancake syrup
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup (I used light, I don't know if it matters)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • Sliced almonds (I think traditional is pecans but I like almonds)
Pour the syrup, corn syrup, and brown sugar into a saucepan and stir over high heat until a boil starts. Stir after the boil, then turn down to medium heat and let it sit for a little bit. Slice up the bananas then stir them into the syrupy mix! And throw in those almonds too. Mix it all up, then spoon it over your french toast and there you have it! :)

(LOL Excuse the paper plate, I had enough dishes to do!!)
