Categories     main-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 31

1/4 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup milk
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
4 eggs
1 loaf store-bought or homemade banana bread, recipe follows, sliced into 1-inch-thick slices
3 tablespoons butter
3 bananas
1 cup sugar
Peanut Butter Mousse, recipe follows
2 ounces dark chocolate, grated, for garnish
Cinnamon Maple Syrup, recipe follows
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
1 cup sugar
7 ounces (14 tablespoons) butter, at room temperature
2 eggs, at room temperature
1 cup mashed banana
1/2 cup buttermilk, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch ground cloves
2 1/4 cups heavy cream
9 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
8 ounces peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 cinnamon sticks
2 cups maple syrup

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the cream, milk, nutmeg and eggs in a bowl. Working in batches, soak the banana bread slices in the mixture.
  • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat with a bit of the butter. Cook a batch of the banana bread slices until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer to the oven to keep warm. Cook the remaining slices, adding more butter as needed.
  • Cut the bananas into oblique slices, place on a baking sheet and coat with the sugar. Brulee them with a kitchen torch or under a broiler (or leave raw if you do not have a torch or broiler).
  • Arrange the French toast on plates, top with a quenelle (oval-shaped scoop) of the Peanut Butter Mousse, spread the bruleed bananas about, grate chocolate over the top of it all and serve with a side of the warm Cinnamon Maple Syrup.
  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Spray an 8-by-4-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray and line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
  • In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between additions.
  • Combine the banana, buttermilk and vanilla in a bowl. Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt and cloves in a second bowl. Add half of the flour mixture to the butter mixture and paddle just to combine. Scrape down the sides and then add the buttermilk and banana mixture. Scrape down again, and add the remaining flour until just combined uniformly.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake on the center rack until a toothpick inserted in the loaf comes out clean, 50 minutes to an hour, depending on your oven. Let cool for about 10 minutes, then remove from the pan to cool completely.
  • Whisk the cream to medium peaks and set aside.
  • In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream together the cream cheese, peanut butter, sugar, salt and vanilla, scraping down the sides of the bowl halfway, until the mixture is uniform, about 5 minutes. Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, a third at a time. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Blacken the cinnamon a bit on a gas burner.
  • Put the maple syrup in a pan and heat until warm. Remove from the heat, add the blackened cinnamon sticks and let steep in the syrup for 20 minutes.

My husband and I are both on vacation today so I whipped this up on a whim as a special treat for us and my older daughter. It was so delicious! I can't wait to make it again!

Provided by Jessica Dayon

Categories     Other Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 slice white bread
2 bananas
1 1/2-3 Tbsp creamy peanut butter
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 c almond milk or any milk you want
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 Tbsp canola oil

Steps:

  • 2. Mix the eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Dip each sandwich into the egg mixture to coat. Set aside.
  • 3. Heat a large pan with the canola oil in it over medium heat. When hot, add the dipped sandwiches to the pan. Brown on one side. Then flip and reduce heat to low. Continue to look until the second side is browned and the inside is slightly melted and gooey. Serve right away with pure maple syrup.

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have any peanut butter, you can substitute another nut butter, such as almond butter or cashew butter.
  • If you want a sweeter French toast, you can add a tablespoon of sugar or maple syrup to the egg mixture.
  • To make sure your French toast is cooked through, cook it over medium heat until it is golden brown on both sides.
