Ingredients
- 4 slices brioche or challah bread
- 2 bananas, sliced
- 2 tbsp tahini
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or brown sugar
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk (any kind)
- Butter/oil for cooking
🥣 Instructions
- Make filling: Mash bananas with tahini, maple syrup, and cinnamon.
- Stuff the bread: Spread the banana mix between two slices to make a sandwich.
- Dip in custard: Whisk eggs and milk. Dip sandwiches to soak.
- Cook: Fry on medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
- Serve: Top with a drizzle of tahini or honey, and a pinch of flaky salt.
✅ Pros
- Flavor Depth: The nuttiness of tahini + sweet banana = rich, layered taste.
- Fancy Brunch Vibes: Feels gourmet, but it’s super simple.
- Good Use of Ripe Bananas: No waste!
❌ Cons
- Tahini Isn’t for Everyone: Its bitterness can throw people off.
- Messy to Make: Stuffed French toast can be a little drippy.
- High Calorie: Decadent = rich, so maybe not an everyday breakfast.
