PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA WALNUT BREAKFAST STRATA



Peanut Butter and Banana Walnut Breakfast Strata image

I've copied (and varied) a few breakfast strata recipes and french toast casseroles over the years with berries, meat, and cheese but never tried with one of my childhood favorites...Peanut Butter and Banana until recently. Boy is it good...but not for the calorie counters! It is so decadent that I feel as if any added syrup or powdered sugar just takes it right over the top.

Time 8h40m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 large eggs
4 large egg yolks
1 cup cream
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup mascarpone cheese, softened
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon salt
12 slices bread, dried french loaf preferably cut into 1/2 inch slices
1 (16 ounce) jar peanut butter, preferably crunchy
2 bananas, sliced
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped and toasted
2 tablespoons butter, cut into tiny squares

Steps:

  • Make "Peanut Butter and Banana" Sandwiches with the bread, peanut Butter, and bananas. Place in a 9x9 inch baking dish. Don't be afraid to cut in half or crunch together to make them fit in all areas of the pan. Sprinkle mixture with the toasted walnuts and butter chunks.
  • Place softened Mascarpone cheese in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together eggs, egg yolks, milk, cream, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt. Add egg mixture to to the cheese mixture in small scoops. Whisk well after each scoop. This will help incorporate the cheese with the eggs to build a smooth custard. Repeat this process until all ingredients are incorporated and a thick pretty custard is the result.
  • Pour the custard over the Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwiches. Press a bit to ensure that all pieces of bread are covered. Refrigerate for a few hours or up to overnight to ensure the flavors melt together.
  • You can also freeze this mixture for a future purposes sealed well in foil and plastic.
  • Bake mixture (thawed) at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes (or until custard is set and top is browned). I like to keep it covered in foil for the first 30 minutes and remove the foil at the end to allow the top to brown.
  • Serve with -- well -- whatever you want! I'm not a big fan of super sweet breakfasts, so I will eat this plain. My friends and family will sprinkle powdered sugar or add butter & maple syrup.

BREAKFAST STRATA

My grandmother makes this every Christmas morning, and it's amazing. My husband hates eggs and he always has seconds, even my 1- and 2-year-old gobble this up. Perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner! Ingredients are forgiving; add your favorites or spice it up. Just make sure your veggies are not going to water it down.

Time 3h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound sausage, casings removed
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
8 eggs, beaten
10 cups cubed, day-old bread
3 cups whole milk
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 ½ cups cubed Black Forest ham
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons mustard powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons dried basil

  • Generously grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
  • Heat a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir sausage until crumbly and completely browned, about 10 minutes. Transfer cooked sausage to the prepared casserole dish.
  • Cook and stir mushrooms in the same skillet over medium heat until liquid has been released and mushrooms are lightly browned, 5 to 10 minutes; drain.
  • Mix mushrooms, eggs, bread, milk, Cheddar cheese, ham, spinach, flour, mustard powder, salt, butter, and basil together in a large bowl; pour over sausage. Cover casserole dish and refrigerate, 2 hours to overnight.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ingredients: Use high-quality, ripe bananas for the best flavor. For a richer strata, use a combination of whole milk and heavy cream.
  • Layer the ingredients carefully: Make sure to spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the bread cubes, and then top with the bananas and walnuts. This will ensure that every bite is packed with flavor.
  • Bake it just until golden brown: The strata is done when the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the strata.
  • Serve it warm: The strata is best served warm, when the peanut butter is melted and gooey. You can also top it with a dollop of yogurt or whipped cream.

Conclusion:

This peanut butter and banana walnut breakfast strata is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weekend brunch. It is also a great way to use up leftover bread and bananas. With its combination of sweet, salty, and nutty flavors, this strata is sure to be a hit with everyone at the table.
