I have yet to try this, but it sounds awesome! The banana whipped cream topping must be started at least two hours before serving. I would do this the night before so it is ready to use in the morning. This is definitely on my must try list. Ingredients:
8 slices bread |
4 large eggs |
1 cup milk |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
2 ripe bananas, peeled and sliced |
1/2 cup orange juice |
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
3/4 cup chilled whipping cream |
Directions:
1. For topping: combine bananas, orange juice, sugar and lemon juice and cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until the bananas become very soft.
2. With a slotted spoon, transfer bananas to blender.
3. Add 1/4 cup of the liquid from the pan and puree until smooth.
4. Place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and chill until cold (at least 2 hours).
5. Just before serving, beat whipping cream in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form.
6. Fold banana puree into whipping cream.
7. For French toast, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon and vanilla.
8. Dip bread slices into egg mixture, coating both sides well.
9. Melt butter in skillet or griddle and cook slices over medium heat until golden brown.
10. Keep slices in warm oven until all are completed.
11. Serve with a generous dollop of banana cream topping and garnish with a few slices of freshly sliced bananas.
