Quick French Toast With Caramelized Bananas image

My favorite 'special' breakfast. On the table in only 15 minutes. I like to use large sndwiches rolls cut into 4 long strips, but any bread works. Amounts given are approximate.

Time 12m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 slices Texas toast thick bread or 3 sandwich buns, cut longwise into quarters
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon butter
cinnamon (optional)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 banana, sliced in half twice lengthwise and crosswise

Steps:

  • Preheat nonstick skillet to 350, medium high.
  • In shallow dish, mix egg and milk until well incorporated. Dip bread into egg-milk mixture to coak. For softer french toast, allow to soak until all liquid is absorbed.
  • Let about 1 teaspoon butter melt in skillet. Cook french toast in butter about 1 min per side, until just golden brown. Is desired, sprinkle with cinnamon before flipping. (If using strips, cook on all four sides.).
  • Remove french toast to warm plate.
  • In skillet, combine brown sugar and remaining butter.
  • Add banana. Cook just enough to coat all sides with bubbling butter/sugar mixture, and carmelize slightly; less than 2 minutes total.
  • To serve, top french toast with caramelized banana and any of the butter/sugar mixture left in the pan.
