Ingredients
-
4 thick slices of brioche or white bread

2 large eggs

½ cup milk (or cream for extra richness)

1 tablespoon sugar
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
½ teaspoon cinnamon (optional but amazing)

1 ripe banana, sliced

Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
1. Make the Custard
In a bowl, whisk together:

Eggs

Milk
-
Sugar
-
Vanilla
-
Cinnamon
You should get a smooth, creamy mixture that smells like heaven.
2. Dip the Bread
Take your thick slices of bread and soak them in the custard for a few seconds on each side.
Let them drink up the mixture — but don’t let them fall apart.
3. Fry to Perfection
-
Heat a pan over medium heat.
-
Add a generous pat of butter and let it melt.

Cook until golden brown, slightly crisp on the edges, and still fluffy inside (about 2–3 minutes per side).
Your kitchen should smell incredible by now.

Fresh banana slices
