Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 slices sliced brioche bread
- 4 pieces large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons dark rum
- 2 tablespoons water
- 3 pieces ripe bananas
- 1 cup fresh raspberries
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat.
Lightly butter the skillet. Dip each slice of brioche bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly coated. Place the soaked bread slices into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Repeat with all of the bread slices and set aside.
In a large sauté pan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Stir in the brown sugar, rum, and water until the mixture is smooth and bubbly, about 2 minutes.
Peel the bananas, slice them diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces, and gently fold them into the caramel sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring the bananas are coated and warmed through.
To assemble, layer the French toast slices on plates. Spoon the bananas foster mixture generously over the top.
Sprinkle fresh raspberries over each plate and dust with powdered sugar for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy this sweet, indulgent breakfast!
