Banana French Toast
Things I’m loving right now:
- The smell of fresh cut grass
- Rays of sunshine pouring through my windows
- Flower petals blooming
- Seeing my daughter make herself laugh
- Banana French Toast 🙂
I’ve seen lots of bloggers mash bananas on french toast…
The idea of banana sounds good… but to be honest… I’m not a fan of mashed banana.
I found the idea for this recipe when researching finger foods for my daughter.
The original version is egg-free (because babies can’t have egg-whites until they turn one.)
You just throw a banana, a little milk, and an egg in the cuisenart, or blender… then soak the bread in the mixture for a few minutes.
The result? Delicious!
The consistency is perfect with just the right amount of banana flavor!
Ingredients:
- 1 banana
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup soy milk (or skim milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla
- dash of cinnamon
- 2 slices whole wheat bread
Directions:
Throw banana, egg, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon in a blender or food processor and puree all ingredients.
Pour banana mixture in shallow bowl or plate and soak bread for a few minutes.
Spray pan with non-stick cooking spray. Heat pan to medium heat. Gently place soaked bread onto pan. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Note: When making this for babies… leave the egg out and chop the final product into bite size pieces. Your baby will LOVE it! Promise 😉
Sprinkle with a little powdered sugar & Enjoy!!!

I’ve put bananas on my French toast, but never soaked the bread in it. That’s a great idea. I’m loving that right now. And the fact that it’s Friday. Whew, I need a weekend.
I have to say, a daughter’s laugh is one of the most amazing sounds to me.
I’m loving warm, sunny afternoons; 5 pm walks with my husband, daughter and dog; and most of all, my life as a stay at home mom!
