Peanut Butter Banana French Toast
Hope everyone had a beautiful weekend. We are FINALLY out of school around here. Seems like we were the only school on earth still in session. My boys are thrilled to sleep in and stay up late this summer 🙂 I am officially 7 months pregnant. I liked the 2nd trimester much better, lol! A few more months to go. Can’t wait to meet our new little guy.
Ok, onto the French Toast! When I was in Kansas City last week, some of you may have recognized that I enjoyed a Bananas Foster French Toast for breakfast in my hotel room. It was so amazing that I was determined to come home and make my own version that we could all enjoy. Let me just tell you, I did it and it’s even better. AND it’s a breeze to make. Let’s take a look.
How to Make Peanut Butter Bananas Foster French Toast
Let’s start with the egg/cream mixture for the toast. Do NOT substitute that heavy cream. It’s a must my friends.
Eggs, cream and brown sugar into the bowl.
Add your cinnamon then grab a fork or whisk.
Mix it all together.
Melt some butter into your hot skillet.
I used a lovely cinnamon bread from the Farmer’s Market, however use what you like. Dip it on in.
Make sure to dip both sides then transfer to your hot skillet.
Sizzle sizzle for a couple minutes.
Check to make sure that bottom side is nice and golden.
….and flip to get that other side 🙂
Once all of your bread has been “French Toasted” let’s start the best part of the recipe. The peanut buttery creamy sauce. Some pure maple syrup please.
Swirl in and melt your peanut butter. MMMM!
Once the peanut butter’s melted and bubbly add a splash of vanilla.
Stir in some heavy cream. Oh yah!
Dont’ forget those nanners.
Give them a stir into that fabulous sauce.
Ok, it’s ready to be slathered over your toast!
Tada’ Now grab a fork and dig in 🙂
Ridiculous in the best way possible.

I hate it when someone says “Do Not Substitute” as if they are the only authority. Especially when they follow it with misspellings and nonsense, like “1/4 cup heavy creamy” how long does it take to milk that out of your husband?
I’ll cook however I like.
OMG! I grew up eating peanut butter on my eggo’s as a child, and would always mix more PB with the syrup! I still do it to this day (with pancakes too 🙂 This just gives me an excuse to make french toast now 😉
Oh my goodness! We just had this for breakfast all the way in Botswana Africa! And I can guarantee it was just as delicious. I’m with Shelly above – I may serve that sauce on everything from now on. Yum!
OMG, those look so delicious! Like you, I have a huge weakness for peanut butter! I must try this on my next “cheat day”! I just returned from Maui and made something similar for breakfst while we were there. We went to this teeny little village of Kahakuloa to seek out Julia’s Best Banana bread at this little green fruit stand. It was so delicious that I was inspired to make french toast out of it!! Bananas and honey on top and it was sinfully delicious! Though it required a stop at the resort’s gym later that day, lol!
Bananas Foster French Toast is one of our favorites! We always enjoy it for special occasions like Christmas morning or birthday!
Looks divine! I know what I am having for breakfast tomorrow! You are so creative.
Amazing! The sauce looks too good! Really great photos. 🙂
