Steps:
- For the ginger butter: Place the butter, agave and ginger in a food processor and process until smooth. (If no processor is available, you may use softened butter and whisk all ingredients instead.) The butter should have a smooth consistency, ready to be dipped into.
- For the french toast puffs: Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F, using convection if available. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
- Put the bananas, oat milk, coconut, sugar, cinnamon, turmeric, nutmeg, vanilla and salt in a blender and blend until smooth. If there are a few small chunks of banana, don't worry, it will add to the texture of the puffs.
- Put 1 loaf's worth of bread chunks in a large mixing bowl, followed by the batter. With a spatula or fingertips, gently fold everything together. Take care not to overmix. Homogenous is boring, so we are looking for the bread to be mostly intact, moistened by the batter. Let sit for 5 minutes. The texture should now be soft and wet, not soupy (if it's soupy, add more bread).
- When the correct texture is achieved, it will be easily scoopable with a golf-ball-sized cookie scoop. Scoop out all of the bread-batter mix onto the prepared baking sheet. Keep it funky and scoop larger amounts than the scoop can hold, like a scoop of hard ice cream. Bake until golden brown and crispy on the outside, 10 to 15 minutes. (Browned and slightly crunchy on the outside, and soft on the inside, is our goal.) Eat with hands, dipping into Vermont maple syrup and ginger butter.

Steps:
- 1. Mix the custard mixture together by adding the half and half, eggs, cinnamon and nutmeg (if used). Cut the slices of bread into small cubes and mix into the custard mixture until all is incorporated and moistened. Heat a frying pan/or griddle and add the butter until melted and drop large spoonfuls of the mixture onto the hot frying pan or griddle and brown. Turn and brown the other side. Serve with maple syrup or honey.
Tips:
- Use stale bread for a crispier French toast puff.
- Cut the bread into 1-inch cubes to ensure even cooking.
- Soak the bread cubes in the egg mixture for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Use a large skillet or griddle to cook the French toast puffs in batches, so they don't overcrowd the pan.
- Cook the French toast puffs over medium heat until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Serve the French toast puffs immediately with your favorite toppings, such as butter, syrup, fruit, or whipped cream.
Conclusion:
French toast puffs are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. They are perfect for using up stale bread, and they can be customized with a variety of toppings to suit your taste. Whether you like them simple or dressed up, French toast puffs are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
