French Toast With Bananas And Walnuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

6 eggs
1/4 c. milk
4 very ripe bananas
1/4 c. coarsely chopped walnuts
1/8 tsp. freshly grated nutmeg
8 slices egg bread
4 Tbsp. butter
Confectioners sugar for dusting
Maple syrup or jam, for serving

Preparation

In a large shallow bowl, using a fork, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Stir in the milk and set aside. Peel the bananas and cut in small pieces. Put in small bowl and mash them with a fork. Stir in the walnuts and the nutmeg. Spread the banana mixture over 4 slices of bread, leaving a 1/4 inch border uncovered on all edges. Top with the remaining bread slices and press down gently to seal.
Place 2 sandwiches in egg mixture and press down gently. Turn over and let soak for a moment until evenly saturated on both sides. Repeat with the other 2 remaining sandwiches. Melt 2 Tbsp. butter in a frying pan or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwiches on griddle and fry until the undersides are gold brown, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining butter, flip the sandwiches with a spatula and fry until golden brown. To serve, place the toast on plates and dust with confectioners sugar. Serve with maple syrup or jam.
