Wish I could agree with most everyone else, but I didn't care for this at all. It just seemed like a mushy piece of bread, no matter what heat I cooked it at. I'll just go back to toasting my banana bread when it starts to get dry.

Excellent idea and a great recipe. It has a sweet enough taste that no syrup is required. A two thumbs up family favorite.

I love banana bread and french toast, so it was only natural that I try this recipe. The condensed milk really made the recipe - the batter stuck on really well. This dish is also great cold with fresh sliced strawberries on top. The only advice I have is to not slice the bread too thick, as the batter cooks up fairly quickly.

This turned out awful. I did just as the recipe specified and all I ended up with was a gooey mass in the frying pan. I'm upset that I wasted these ingredients.

I can't say it was bad, I guess I like regular french toast better.

I made this for the first time this morning. My husband is not a big fan of banana bread, but I love it, as does my daughter. I made banana muffin mix and poured it into a loaf pan, and cooked it for about 14 minutes. Took it out to cool, then proceeded with the french toast preparation. I liked it a lot! Thanks!

Made this recipe on Christmas Eve morning and it was a hit - I made the Banana Bread I recipe and used that bread for the French Toast and put rasins on it as well.

What an inventive idea! LBR8, you rock! This has become a family stable in our house, my 7yo loves this! (In pictured photo, I used banana bread baked in coffee cans, that is why it is round). I don't use the Eagle Brand, either, I use reg. milk.

This recipe is wonderful! Like another reviewer, I used milk and sugar instead of condensed milk. This is going to become a weekend staple in our home.

I admit I was skeptical when I found this recipe - I didn't think that banana bread would make good french toast. WOW. It is really good! I had a loaf of banana bread that was a little heavy and dry - this is the perfect way to use it up! Thanks for the recipe!

I wanted to test this so that if we have some banana bread around that's getting a little old, we have some way to use it. :) What I did: I didn't want to open a can of sweetened condensed milk for a couple tablespoons (I did a 2/3 size batch), so I used milk plus some sugar instead. I whisked the milk, sugar, eggs, and vanilla together, then stuck the bowl in the fridge for a bit while eating dinner. I cut two slices about 3/4 to 1-inch thick, dipped, fried, ate. Yum! I put a little Country Crock on the end product, the icing sugar was unnecessary (already very sweet). Thanks for a great snack idea!

I made this for my mother on Mother's Day. She loved it. If you like Banana Bread then this is a great recipe. It puts a kick on French Toast. The condensed milk made it taste Great. I added a few walnuts on top along with the powdered sugar. I suggest not putting as much powdered sugar as you would on regular French toast...It might be too sweet.

I made this recipe on Christmas morning because I needed to use up a partial can of sweetened condensed milk. Delicious -- what a treat! I used a homemade loaf of sour cream banana bread and cut it into about 3/4" slices rather than quarters.
