My Dad taught me this recipe when I had a house full of guests one weekend and wanted to have a nice breakfast ready for them when they woke up.
This is now my favorite thing to make when I host a Sunday brunch. It’s one of those dishes that look impressive but are extremely easy. Serve with whole wheat toast or English muffins and some fresh squeezed OJ and you’ve got yourself a lovely meal!

Banana Walnut French Toast
Try this nutritious take on french toast that captures all of the flavor minus the extra calories. Plus you get a healthy dose of potassium and antioxidants from the banana and walnuts!
Dish Type: Dairy- Breakfast
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 5-10 minutes
Total Time: 15 min
Ingredients:
- 2 slices Ezekiel Organic Sprouted Sesame bread
- 1 organic egg
- 1/4 cup 1% Stonyfield Organic milk
- 1/4 tsp vanilla Extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp butter
- 2 Tbsp Brads Organic Amber Maple Syrup
- 2 Tbsp Diamond Walnuts
- 1 medium ripe banana
Instructions:
- If bread is frozen toast to thaw (I keep mine frozen because it lasts longer and stays fresher).
- Combine egg, milk, vanilla and cinnamon in a medium mixing bowl. Beat for 2 minutes.
- Pour into a deep dish and place bread to soak for 1 minute on each side.
- Heat nonstick pan over a low to medium flame and add butter. *Eggs burn easily so lower is better.
- Transfer soaked bread to pan and cook for approximately 3-5 minutes on each side, or until done.
- Place on two separate plates and top each with 1/2 banana (sliced), 1 tbsp walnuts and 1 tbsp maple syrup.
Enjoy!
