How to Make Banana French Toast Sandwich

  1. Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt in a shallow dish.
  2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully coated. Let it soak for about 15-20 seconds per side.
  3. Melt butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
  4. Cook the bread slices for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Spread a thin layer of Nutella or your preferred spread on one slice of the cooked French toast.
  6. Layer sliced bananas on top of the Nutella.
  7. Top with the remaining slice of French toast to create a sandwich.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy! Consider adding a dusting of powdered sugar or a drizzle of maple syrup for extra sweetness.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
