Banana Bread French Toast
I have been dreaming about making a banana bread French toast for ages. You can make this French toast with my recipe for banana nut bread, regular banana bread, or you can use store bought banana bread, of course. The piece de resistance in this recipe really is the caramelized bananas. If you’ve never had caramelized bananas you have to try them. They are to die for! I do have to say though that in my humble opinion I do make the best banana bread. So I really recommend you make it yourself, and if you do make and are lucky enough to have some leftover slices, well then you must make this banana bread french toast because it’s the bomb!
Banana bread – You can use homemade or store bought. Eggs – I used large eggs. Heavy cream – You can use regular milk or any percentage of cream than you have handy. Honey – You can use regular sugar, but I find honey much easier to dissolve into the mixture. Salt – Just a bit of salt will help bring out all the flavors. Butter – I prefer to use unsalted butter. Margarine will also work. Icing sugar – This is totally optional, but I love to dust some powdered sugar over my French toast once it’s all done. Bananas – Since these will be caramelized, even unripened bananas will work. Brown sugar – This will give you a nice and fast caramel versus regular sugar.

How to Store Leftovers
Store leftovers either in an airtight container, a freezer bag, or wrapped in plastic in the fridge up to 2 days. They can be reheated in the microwave, a skillet, or in a toaster. If you’d like to freeze the leftovers, stack the French toast with a piece of parchment paper between each slice. Store them either in an airtight container or a large freezer bag. They will last up to 2 months. Microwave or a toaster will work best for reheating.
