120g eggs
¾ cup milk
½ tspn cinnamon
2 thick slices good quality white bread
10ml Extra Virgin Olive Oil to stop butter from burning

Methods
1
This recipe requires very ripe bananas.
METHOD
2
Beat the eggs and milk together. Add the cinnamon and lay each slice of bread in this mixture for a couple of minutes on each side so that the bread soaks up some of the liquid but doesn’t become too soggy.
3
Add the butter to a frying pan and when it is sizzling, toss in the slices of banana and cook until caramelised on each side.
4
Drizzle with Verjuice to deglaze. Remove from the pan and set aside.
5
Add a little more butter to the frying pan and when it’s bubbling, gently place the bread in the pan and cook for a few minutes on each side until crisp.
6
Divide the bananas between each slice of French toast and dust with a little icing sugar. Serve immediately!
