Banana Stuffed French Toast recipe

6 servings

1 (1 pound) loaf French bread, cut into 1 inch slices

2 bananas, peeled and sliced

3 eggs, beaten

1 teaspoon water

1 tablespoon milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon orange liqueur

1 teaspoon grated orange zest

1/4 cup butter

confectioners' sugar for dusting

Create a pocket about 2/3 of the way into each slice of bread by cutting along an edge.

Fill pockets with 2 or 3 banana slices each.

In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, water, milk, vanilla extract, orange liqueur and orange zest.

Dip the bread slices in the mixture, allowing slices to become saturated.

Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat.

Place a few slices at a time in the skillet, and cook, turning once, until both sides are golden brown.

Dust with confectioners' sugar to serve.
