371 – Banana Nutella French Toast / التوست الفرنسى بنيوتيلا الموز

Ingredients :

• 6 large bread slices (brioche preferably)
• 1 banana
• Spread (nutella, cookie butter, chocolate spread, etc.)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions :

Step 1 – Preparing the Bread:
1- First, let’s prepare the bread slices. I am using brioche slices, but you can also use whole wheat toast or any other type of flat bread you want.
2- Cut the edges of the toast, then using a rolling pin, roll the bread slices flat. This makes them easier to roll up.
3- For the filling I am using a banana. Peel and thinly slice the banana. You can also use strawberries or any other fruit of your choice.
4- Spread on each bread Nutella or any other filling like cookie butter, chocolate spread, or anything you crave! Place the banana slices on the bread and roll up.

Step 2 – Dipping and Pan Frying: 
1- Melt butter in a pan over medium high heat.
2- Quickly dip the breads in the egg mixture, in both sides, shake off the excess then place in the pan. Don’t keep the breads in the egg mixture too long or they will become soggy.
3- Cook for around 5 minutes until the bread rolls get a beautiful golden brown color on all sides.
4- Serve immediately while warm.

Bon appetit!
