8 ounces 1/3 less fat cream cheese
4 pieces Egg whites
2 cups Unsweetened almond milk (maybe 1 cup)

Steps:

Cut buns into 1-inch cubes. Place half of cubes into a 13" x 9" casserole dish coated with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sweetener (sugar or Stevia) until well mixed.
Using a tsp, drop cream cheese mixture evenly onto hamburger buns.
Cover cream cheese and buns with the remaining ½ of cubed hamburger buns.
Slice bananas and place on top of hamburger cubes in casserole dish.
In a large bowl, add eggs and egg whites and whisk.
Next, add in almond milk, maple syrup, brown sugar, cinnamon and optional banana extract.
Whisk all ingredients together until well mixed. Pour mixture over bananas and hamburger buns to cover.
Cover and refrigerate for 7-8 hours or overnight. Remove from refrigerator 15-20 minutes before baking.
Preheat oven to 375.
Cover with foil and bake for 20-25 minutes, rotating the casserole dish in the oven at the halfway point. Uncover and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, again, rotating the casserole dish in the oven at the halfway point, until a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
