Ingredients
- 300mls milk
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1 tsp ground cinnamon
8 chunky slices of bread
4 bananas, sliced
60g golden caster sugar
80g soft butter
1 tbs hazelnuts, toasted and roughly chopped
1 tbs almonds, toasted and roughly chopped
1 tbs pecan nuts, toasted and roughly chopped
4 tbs natural yogurt
Method
Mix the milk, eggs, vanilla and cinnamon together in a flat dish. Place the slices of bread into it and set them aside to soak up the liquid. You may need to alternate the position of the bread with a fish slice halfway through soaking.
Place the bananas, caster sugar and butter into a pan and allow to heat up. It will get sticky and start to caramelise. Gently turn the bananas and add the roasted nuts to the pan. Set aside.
Heat a knob of butter and fry the soaked bread until golden, then turn over and fry the other side. Repeat with all the slices. Serve with the bananas and nuts scooped on top and some natural yogurt on the side.
