Stuffed French Toast With Almond Butter And Banana Recipes

STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH ALMOND BUTTER AND BANANA

Steps:

• Slice the bread into halves and layer up the bottom halves with your almond butter and banana slices, then sandwich together with the top half.
• In a shallow dish, whisk together the egg, cinnamon and almond milk until fully combined, then soak both sides of your sandwiches until well coated and moist.
• Heat a little coconut oil in a non-stick frying pan then gently lay your sandwiches in to fry for about 4 minutes on each side.
• Plate up and top with fresh berries and a tablespoon of Greek yogurt, if you like.

BANANA STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Create a pocket about 2/3 of the way into each slice of bread by cutting along an edge. Fill pockets with 2 or 3 banana slices each.
• In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, water, milk, vanilla extract, orange liqueur and orange zest. Dip the bread slices in the mixture, allowing slices to become saturated.
• Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place a few slices at a time in the skillet, and cook, turning once, until both sides are golden brown. Dust with confectioners' sugar to serve.

BANANA STUFFED FRENCH TOAST, "ULTIMATE-STYLE"

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the pancake mix with enough water to make a thin batter. Add nutmeg, cinnamon, vanilla, sugar and eggs. Whisk together until smooth, about 3 minutes.
• In a medium bowl, mix together walnuts, brown sugar, and banana slices.
• Slice the ends off the French bread. Starting at 1 end, measure about a half inch down the loaf and slice the bread 3/4 of the way through. Measure about another half inch, and slice cleanly through the bread. You should have a 1-inch slice of bread with a cut down the middle. Repeat this process until the bread is all sliced up.
• Take a piece of the cut French bread and stuff a few tablespoons of the banana mixture into the slit in the middle. Add a good amount, but do not overstuff so that the mixture won't stay in the center. Repeat until all the slices are stuffed.
• Preheat a skillet or flat-top grill over medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, coat it with 2 tablespoons of butter.
• Pour the crushed-up cornflakes onto a plate. Take a slice of stuffed bread and dip it into the egg mixture, coating both sides liberally. Then press the bread into the cornflakes and flip it to coat both sides. Place the bread on the grill or skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Flip the toast over and cook the other side. Repeat the coating and cooking process for each slice of bread, and add more butter to the grill or skillet as necessary, about 2 tablespoons of butter per slice.

PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Remove crust from bread. Lay bread out on counter and spread a thin layer of peanut butter on each slice. Peel banana and slice enough to cover every other piece of bread. (You will be making 3 complete sandwiches). Drizzle a small amount of honey on each piece of bread that does not have banana on it. (These are the tops). Place honey drizzled piece of bread on top of a piece with bananas on it to make a sandwich. Repeat until you have made 3 sandwiches.
• In a shallow medium sized bowl, gently whip, by hand, the eggs, cream, vanilla, rum, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
• Heat skillet to medium heat, around 350 to375 degrees F, or until butter melts and begins to sizzle. Dip 1 sandwich at a time into rum batter and place into skillet. Cook until golden brown (about 3 to 4 minutes before turning) on each side. Remove from skillet and cut in 1/2 diagonally. Top with powdered sugar, butter and maple syrup.

BANANA AND PEANUT BUTTER STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Lay bread on counter and spread 1 tbl peanut butter on each slice.
• Peel and slice enough bananas to cover 4 slices of bread.
• Drizzle small amount of honey on remaining 4 slices of bread.
• Place honey drizzled slices (honey side down) on top of banana slices, making 4 sandwiches.
• Beat eggs, cream, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt with a whisk in a medium bowl.
• Heat griddle or skillet over med-low heat. Grease with butter or spray pan, if necessary.
• Dip one sandwich at a time into egg mixture and place on griddle. Cook each side until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes per side). Remove from skillet and cut each in half diagonally.
• Serve immediately with sprinkled powdered sugar or syrup, if desired.

BANANA-STUFFED FRENCH TOAST

Steps:

• Cut a 3-in. pocket in the crust of each slice of bread. Slice the bananas in half lengthwise and then into 3-in. pieces. Place two pieces of banana in each pocket. In a shallow bowl, beat eggs, milk and vanilla; soak bread for 2 minutes on each side. Fry on a greased griddle over medium heat until golden brown on both sides. Serve with syrup if desired.

BANANA-STUFFED FRENCH TOAST WITH STREUSEL TOPPING

Steps:

• Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons sugar and 2 tablespoons water and stir until sugar dissolves. Continue stirring until mixture is foamy, about 2 minutes. Add bananas; cook until tender, stirring occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer to small bowl; cool. (Can be prepared 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Using small sharp knife, cut 2-inch-long slit in 1 side of each bread slice, cutting 3/4 of way through bread and creating pocket that leaves 3 sides of bread intact. Divide banana mixture equally among pockets in bread. Whisk milk, eggs, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, vanilla and 1/2 cup sugar in large bowl to blend. Pour into large glass baking dish. Place bread in egg mixture; let soak 10 minutes, turning occasionally.
• Place almonds in shallow bowl. Carefully remove bread from egg mixture and coat both sides with almonds. Place bread on heavy large baking sheet. Mix brown sugar, oats, flour and remaining 2 teaspoons cinnamon in medium bowl. Add remaining 1/4 cup butter and rub in, using fingertips, until moist clumps form. Sprinkle topping over bread.
• Bake French toast until topping is golden brown and filling is hot, about 25 minutes. Transfer toast to plates. Serve hot with maple syrup.
