Bananas Foster French Toast
A rich caramel sauce with bananas over the top of French toast is a winner winner!
This recipe was one that no one in my family asked for BUT my husband loves banana fosters and I love French toast. AND most of us like brinner so I thought this would be a lovely surprise for Nick. I honestly wasn’t sure if I’d really like it too much but it was incredible! The caramely bananas were insanely good paired with the whipped cream and French toast. I added a bit of cinnamon to the mix because I thought it would be a good little addition. And it appears that it sometimes does have cinnamon in bananas foster, so maybe I wasn’t too off there!
