Ingredients
knob of butter
3 bananas, sliced
1 tbsp maple syrup
3 eggs, lightly beaten
300ml milk
2 tsp honey
½ tsp vanilla essence
1 tsp ground cinnamon
6 slices of stale bread, halvedÂ
dash of sunflower oil
handful of various nuts, chopped and roasted
2 tbsp natural yoghurtÂ
Method
Melt the butter in a pan and when it is hot fry the banana for thirty seconds.
Add the maple syrup and make sure the banana pieces are coated in both and place a lid on the pan and set aside.
Break the eggs into a shallow bowl and add the milk, honey, vanilla and cinnamon and use a fork to beat the mixture.
Lay the bread in the mixture, turning it over and letting it soak up all of the liquid.
Heat your oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Place the soaked bread into the pan.
After about a minute turn them over and cook the other side. They should turn golden when they are ready.
Serve three halves of bread with a scoop of the warm banana, a sprinkling of toasted nuts and half a tablespoon of yoghurt per serving.
