Bananastuffedfrenchtoast Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Melt butter in a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat. Once butter is melted add the brown sugar and pinch of cinnamon. Stir with a wooden spoon until the sugar melts into the butter and becomes a sauce. Add bananas and toss together. Let cook until the bananas are soft and incorporated into the sauce. Remove to a bowl and let cool completely. Once cool, add cream cheese and mash with a wooden spoon.
• Using a paring knife, cut a 2-inch-long slits 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 the bread pockets.
• In a large bowl, add eggs, heavy cream, milk, cinnamon and rum and whisk to combine. Pour mixture into a 13 by 9-inch casserole dish. Put the bread into the egg mixture and let soak for 3 minutes, turning occasionally. Remove the bread from egg mixture, using a spatula, letting the excess drain off.
• Spray a wire rack with nonstick spray and put the rack on a baking sheet. Put the bread on the rack and transfer to the oven.
• Bake the French toast until it is golden brown and filling is hot, about 25 minutes. Transfer the toast on a serving platter and garnish with confectioners' sugar and maple syrup.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350° F.
• Cut banana into 1/4-inch-thick slices and in a bowl whisk together half-and-half, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cut bread slices horizontally almost in half, leaving 1 edge intact. Stuff each pocket with 4 to 6 banana slices (do not overstuff). In a baking dish just large enough to hold bread slices in one layer, arrange slices and pour custard over them. Soak slices, turning them over once or twice to allow bread to absorb all liquid, about 15 minutes.
• In a 12-inch non-stick skillet melt butter over low heat until foam subsides and cook slices until golden, about 5 minutes on each side.
• Dust French toast with confectioners' sugar and serve with syrup.

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.

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.

Steps:

• In a large shallow bowl, whisk together milk, egg, sugar, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt.
• Dip bread, one slice at a time, into egg mixture, pressing down so bread absorbs liquid. In a large nonstick skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Place all 4 slices in skillet; cook 2 minutes per side or until golden brown.
• Meanwhile, cut banana crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick rounds. Divide bread between two plates; top with banana and syrup. Serve.

Steps:

• Arrange half of bread cubes in a lightly greased 13x9" pan.
• Sprinkle evenly with cream cheese and bananas; top with remaining bread cubes.
• Whisk together eggs, milk, sugar, butter and maple syrup; pour over bread mixture, pressing bread cubes to absorb egg mixture.
• Cover and chill 8 hours.
• Sprinkle with cinnamon and bake, covered, at 350 for 30 minutes.
• Uncover and bake 30 more minutes or until lightly browned and set.
• Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• For the cheesecake filling: in a small bowl, combine cream cheese, egg, heavy cream, sugar and vanilla. Beat until smooth.
• For the French toast egg mixture, combine eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well incorporated.
• Dip slices of brioche in egg mixture.
• Transfer brioche slices and cover bottom of a loaf pan, using a half or a quarter of a slice if necessary.
• Cover the slices with cheesecake filling and spread evenly.
• Layer another row of brioche slices and top with slices of strawberry and banana.
• Layer one last row of brioche slices using small pieces of the bread to fill in the holes.
• Bake for 30 minutes covered, then 10 minutes uncovered.
• Let cool to room temperature.
• Invert the loaf onto a parchment paper-lined baking tray.
• Brush top of loaf with butter and sprinkle sugar over top.
• Broil on high for 5 minutes or until sugar starts to carmelize.
• Garnish with more strawberries, banana, and powdered sugar. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Add the cubes of French bread, and gently stir until the bread has soaked up all the liquid.
• Pour the bread into a greased 9x13 inch (23x33 cm) baking dish. Top with the banana and sugar glaze.
• Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden brown and slightly crispy around the edges and top. (Times and temperatures may vary based on oven).
• Serve with powdered sugar on top.
• Enjoy!
