French Toast Ingredients:
4 eggs
2 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1/4 stick butter
1 loaf Nature’s Own Butterbread*
Bananas Foster Sauce Ingredients:
1/2 stick butter
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
3 bananas, sliced lengthwise and then quartered
To prepare the French toast: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla until the mixture is smoothly combined.
On a non-stick griddle or skillet heated to medium, melt the butter.
Coat each slice of bread in the egg mixture, ensuring to dip them twice for full coverage. Place the slices onto the griddle and cook until both sides are golden brown.
To prepare the bananas foster sauce: In a separate pan, melt together the butter and brown sugar, then sprinkle in the cinnamon. Once it forms a caramel-like consistency, gently add the sliced bananas.
Continue to drizzle the sauce over the bananas as they cook.
Serve the French toast on plates and generously top each stack with the bananas and their sauce.
NOTE:
*This Bananas Foster French Toast is created using Butterbread from Nature’s Own, which has partnered with Make-A-Wish to donate $500,000, promoting and supporting wish kids through 2026.
Since its inception in 1980, the global nonprofit has fulfilled over 375,000 wishes in the U.S. for children battling critical illnesses, helping them gain the strength and hope required to confront their health challenges. These granted wishes can have a profound impact, bringing a sense of normalcy to families and positively affecting entire communities.
In recognition of this partnership, the Slice of Hope Campaign was launched, featuring in-store displays and a digital “Well Wish Wall” for shoppers to share their well wishes for children.
“We are sincerely excited to partner with Make-A-Wish on this important two-year venture, committed to helping fulfill transformative wishes. Together, we aspire to inspire and spread kindness, one wish at a time.”
Krystle Farlow, senior director of brand management, Nature’s Own
