Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 slices sliced bread
- 2 medium banana
- 4 tablespoons peanut butter
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup or honey
Instructions
Peel and slice the bananas into thin, even rounds.
Spread 2 tablespoons of peanut butter on one side of two slices of bread each. Arrange the banana slices evenly over the peanut butter layer, then top with the remaining slices of bread to form two sandwiches.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
Gently dip each sandwich in the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated without making the bread soggy.
Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Once melted and sizzling, place the coated sandwiches in the skillet.
Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through, adding the remaining butter when flipping the sandwiches.
Remove the French toasted banana sandwiches from the skillet and transfer to serving plates.
Drizzle with maple syrup or honey if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
