Peanut Butter Banana French Toast

Before we switched to basic cable, the boys and I used to watch the Food channel a lot. This is a recipe I think I picked up from Alton Brown on Good Eats. The peanut butter and banana adds protein, potassium, and some other good stuff to an already yummy breakfast. Why eat plain ole French toast when you can have this? Be sure to consume with a tall glass of creamy, white beverage of your choice. Mine is vanilla almond milk.

Everyone makes French toast, right? Feel free to use your own egg/milk mixture. I don't actually measure anything out, so I'll just give a brief picture tutorial.

Ingredients 

eggs

milk

vanilla extract

cinnamon

peanut butter

bananas

bread

Heat skillet or griddle over medium heat.

I use about 4 eggs, 2/3 cup whole milk or almond milk, 1 tsp vanilla, and 1/2+ tsp cinnamon.

Whisk mixture well with fork.

Spread a thin layer of peanut butter on two slices of bread. Cover one slice with thinly sliced banana. 

Place bread slices together and cut in half. 

Dip each half in egg/milk mixture. 

Brown on both sides and the cut edge, using the spatula to lift and hold it up.

Serve with butter, maple syrup, and garnish with sliced banana. Enjoy!
