INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 (1 pound) loaf French bread, cut into 1 inch slices
  • 2 bananas, peeled and sliced
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon orange liqueur
  • 1 teaspoon grated orange zest
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • confectioners' sugar for dusting

DIRECTIONS

  1. Create a pocket about 2/3 of the way into each slice of bread by cutting along an edge. Fill pockets with 2 or 3 banana slices each.
  2. In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, water, milk, vanilla extract, orange liqueur and orange zest. Dip the bread slices in the mixture, allowing slices to become saturated.
  3. Melt butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Place a few slices at a time in the skillet, and cook, turning once, until both sides are golden brown. Dust with confectioners' sugar to serve.
