French toast is one of my favorite things to eat – if not MY favorite – and because it’s so easy to make, it’s also one of my favorite breakfasts to prepare. This bananas foster sauce was a completely wonderful addition to an already perfect breakfast meal. It was so sweet and flavorful and it made the whole kitchen smell absolutely delicious! I can see myself making it again to serve over ice cream.
French Toast: (serves 3-4)
- 4 eggs
- 1/2 cup vanilla almond milk (or regular milk)
- 1/2 tsp vanilla
- 1/8 tsp cinnamon
- 6 – 8 pieces of bread
- butter for greasing the pan
- Mix eggs, almond milk. vanilla and cinnamon with a fork or whisk in a wide, shallow bowl.
- Add a small amount of butter to a large frying pan and heat on medium-high heat.
- Dip bread slices in egg mixture for at least 10 seconds on each side, then place on frying pan. Cook until bottom is golden brown, flip and repeat.

Thank you, it was delicious!
hoo boy–this looks amazing. Happy to see you at foodforfun again. I’d bet you could do a better job with the lava cakes than I did:-)
Thanks! I’ve always wanted to try lava cakes, but they look so intimidating. Maybe one day I’ll gather the courage and go for it!
not intimidating–if I could get them to sort-of turn out by being scatterbrained and inattentive, you could easily attain perfection by paying attention to ingredients and baking times. Go for it:-) Thanks for coming by again for cornbread. Thinking I need to Follow you:-)
Bananas foster is my favoriteeee. Great post, this looks delicious 🙂
