A Banana Fosters French Toast General Conference Morning

Ingredients:

French Toast-
1-2 Tablespoons Butter
6-8 pieces bread
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg

Banana Topping-
1 Tablespoon of butter
2 bananas, finely diced (add more if you like)
1/2 C pancake syrup
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon dark rum (optional)

Instructions:
1. Beat eggs in a wide shallow bowl with a whisk. Add cinnamon, vanilla extract and nutmeg. Mix all ingredients together.

2.Melt butter over medium low heat in a non-stick griddle or skillet making sure to coat the entire skillet.

3.Dip bread slices (one at a time) in the egg mixture making sure to coat each side. You do not want to completely soak the bread, just coat the exterior of the bread. Place the coated bread into the skillet. Repeat this procedure one at a time until the skillet is full.

4.Turn the bread when the bottom side turns a golden caramel color. Cook until both sides develop a golden caramel color.

5.To make the banana topping: Melt butter in a small non-stick pan over low medium heat. Add bananas. Cook until bananas begin to soften. Add cinnamon, vanilla extract, rum and pancake syrup. Continue cooking until the syrup and bananas are hot.

6.Spoon the banana syrup over the French toast. You may top with additional butter if desired. Enjoy!

Whipping Cream Topping (thanks to Kristen):
1 pint Whipping Cream mixed with 1/8 C powdered sugar.

Absolutely delicious breakfast, even if you cannot find any rum (to add) in Utah. ;)
