Banana French Toast with Chocolate Dusting

February 2nd, 2009 · 2 Comments ·

One of the best ways to get rid of stale bread is to make French toast for breakfast…or dessert and top it with ice cream. I love having French toast for breakfast. For me, a perfect slice of French toast is a little crispy on the outside and soft and moist inside. Eating a nicely grilled French toast is comforting after my morning workout.

I used banana bread that was made last week.

To get some flavors onto the toast, I beat 1 tablespoon buttermilk and 1 teaspoon vanilla extra into the egg beater to be soaked up by the bread. A nice slice of French toast also does not need to be overwhelmingly sweet. I finished the dish by drizzling 1 teaspoon of maple syrup on top and sprinkling some chocolate dusting, made of 1 part of each cocoa powder and icing sugar, around the plate.

    P.S…my first cooking job ever was at a country bed and breakfast where they battered the french toast and then dipped it in granola and then put it in the pan to toast. Sounds wierd but it was SO good.
