How to Make Baked Banana Stuffed French Toast
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Place 4 slices of bread on a flat surface.
- Top each bread slice with 1/4 of a ripe banana, thinly sliced.
- Mash the banana slightly with a fork.
- Top each banana-topped slice with another slice of bread to create a sandwich.
- In a glass pie dish, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup milk, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Dip each bread sandwich into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Let soak for 45 seconds per side.
- Lightly spray a large nonstick skillet with vegetable oil spray.
- Heat the skillet over medium heat.
- Cook the French toast sandwiches in batches, for about 2 minutes per side, until golden brown.
- Transfer the cooked French toast to a baking sheet.
- Bake for 8 minutes until heated through and slightly browned.
- Remove from oven, dust with powdered sugar, and garnish with fresh strawberries.
- Serve immediately with maple syrup, if desired.
