How to Make Banana Rum Creme French Toast
- In a large bowl, mash the bananas. Stir in the rum, eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon. Whisk until well combined.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in the skillet.
- Dip each slice of bread into the custard mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let the bread soak for about 15-20 seconds per side.
- Place the soaked bread slices onto the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining butter and bread slices.
- Serve immediately, topped with maple syrup and whipped cream, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
