French Toast With Rum Bananas

"Treat your guests or family to a SPECIAL BREAKFAST! Very easy to prepare. The combination of the ingredients are a plus to this entree. If you are cooking for a large crowd, keep cooked toast in a warm oven and top with bananas just before serving. Use firm, but not overripe bananas."

directions

  • For French Toast:

  • In a shallow wide bowl, beat eggs, milk, half and half vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon butter in frying pan or griddle over medium heat. While butter melts, soak 2 to 3 slices of bread in batter. Remove bread and let excess drip off.
  • Arrange slices in pan, not letting slices touch. Fry one side until golden brown for approximately 5 minutes. Flip over and brown second side. When done transfer to a cookie sheet and keep in a warm oven. Repeat for other slices. Before serving sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • For Rum Bananas:

  • Melt butter over medium heat. When butter starts to turn brown, add bananas and mix gently. Sprinkle brown sugar on top of bananas. Stir until sugar has melted.
  • Add rum and cook 1 minute. Add maple syrup and water. Cook until just heated. Remove from heat and use as topping or beside toast.

  1. This was a very tasty treat on a Sunday morning. I cut back on the sugar as we do not like things as sweet as others, and it was still a little too sweet for me, but it was still very good. Used sourdough bread, and made it with fried eggs and bacon. Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. Wow, talk about a treat. My mom & I enjoyed this tasty dish very much. I did use the dark rum and was really glad that I did. The flavor is incredible. The french toast was quick and easy to make, with great results. I will make this again and again. Thanks very much for sharing. :)

<p>Thanks for taking the time to stop by My Page! I am married to a quiet, but fun loving guy who cleans up the kitchen!! I have grandchildren who I adore. I am retired from being a paralegal and a real estate agent. I have also been a substitute teacher for the elementary grades in the public school system. All of my recipes are the tried and true type. Many of them have come from my 48 years of cooking, my mother's recipe box or other relatives. I like Taste of Home magazine and I am a big fan of foodnetworkTV. I am a southern girl and enjoy comfort foods!!! I am a big cookbook collector and have been for years. I enjoy baking desserts most of all. I also enjoy games on my laptop, growing flowers, lunches with friends, babysitting grandchildren, photography and traveling. Since life is so short I try to count my blessings each day and give to the less fortunate. I had gotten into a rut on what to cook. Therefore, I am so happy I found the Recipezaar site. Pet Peeve: People with a negative attitude. MY RATING SYSTEM: 5 stars - Excellent in taste. May have minor change. 4 stars - Adjustment in ingredients for flavor. 3 stars - Fair, but not sure whether I would repeat. 2 and 1 stars - I do NOT give.
