Banana Nut French Toast

Happy Sunday! We aren't big on breakfast during the week in our house. I kind of throw some cheerios down and hand Finn some yogurt. But, all bets are off on Sundays! We love a big breakfast on Sunday Morning. Bryan's favorite is french toast (and who can blame him?) Finn's favorite is "bana" or Bananas so why not both? I used Martha's Perfect French Toast Recipe which is really good because she adds vanilla and fresh orange juice, yum!

Here is the recipe for the Perfect French Toast:


•6 large eggs
•1 1/2 cups milk
•Juice of 1 medium orange, (about 1/4 cup)
•2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
•2 tablespoons cognac, (optional)
•1 tablespoon sugar
•Zest of 1 lemon, (about 1 tablespoon)
•1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
•Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
•Pinch of salt
•6 slices bread, such as brioche, sliced 1-inch thick, preferably day-old
•4 tablespoons unsalted butter
•4 tablespoons vegetable oil




I added walnuts and bananas and Finn approved!

Love to hear what you think!
