This is a delicious and rich Banana French Toast with Walnuts recipe that Paula Deen is using margarine with! Can you believe that the “Butter Queen” has defected? Okay, it’s only to keep the butter from burning but if you cook it slow enough, you’ll be just fine using butter. I hope that you enjoy.
Ingredients
6 eggs
1/4 cup milk
4 very ripe bananas
1/4 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
8 slices egg bread
4 tablespoons margarine (or butter)
confectioners’ sugar, for dusting
honey, maple syrup or jam, for serving
Directions
In a large shallow bowl, using a fork, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Stir in the milk and set aside. Peel the bananas into a small bowl and mash them with a fork. Stir in the walnuts and the nutmeg.
Spread the banana mixture over the 1/2 of the bread slices, leaving a 1/4-inch border uncovered on all edges. Top with the remaining bread slices and press down gently to seal.
Place 2 sandwiches in the egg mixture and press down gently. Turn over and let soak for a moment until evenly saturated on both sides. Repeat with the other 2 remaining sandwiches.
In a frying pan or on a griddle, melt 2 tablespoons of margarine (or butter) over medium heat. Place the sandwiches on griddle and fry until the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining margarine (or butter), flip the sandwiches with a spatula and fry until golden brown.
To serve place the toast on plates and dust with confectioners’ sugar. Serve with honey, maple syrup or jam.
Don’t you just love Buttermilk Pancakes? Slathered with butter and maple syrup? Here’s a quick and easy recipe for your next breakfast. Or lunch. Or dinner. My friend served these the other day and they were so tender and light that I just had to have the recipe to share with you.
You can make these silver dollar sized or saucer sized. You can serve them with crispy bacon or sausage links. Be sure not to overmix the batter though, or you’ll wind up with pancakes the texture of tortillas.
This Scrambled Egg Sandwich recipe is one of my absolute favorites, probably a Top 5 favorite. I make it ‘just because’ it’s so delicious and not because it’s mealtime and I’m feeling lazy. My mom started making this scrambled egg sandwich when I was a child, as sort of a hold-over snack ’til dinner was ready. She only used one slice of bread and just folded it over to prevent the egg from slipping out. But by the time dinner was on the table, I really wasn’t hungry anymore and tonight’s intended dinner for me usually became tomorrow’s fare. Then my mom decided that it would probably make a fantastic full-fledged meal if she added bacon and cottage fries on the side. Our family was in heaven!
