How to Make Banana French Toast With Chocolate Drizzle

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, ½ cup heavy cream, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and the zest of 1 orange.
  3. Slice bread horizontally, creating a pocket without cutting all the way through. (Use a serrated knife for best results)
  4. Mash 1 ripe banana and divide it evenly amongst the bread pockets.
  5. Heat a large skillet over medium heat.
  6. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet.
  7. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
  8. Place bread slices in the skillet and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown.
  9. Transfer the French toast to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.
  10. While the French toast bakes, melt 4 ounces of semisweet chocolate in a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  11. Remove French toast from the oven.
  12. Cut each piece diagonally.
  13. Drizzle generously with melted chocolate.
  14. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with orange slices or fresh fruit salad. Serve immediately and enjoy!
