Banana French Toast

I had a banana that was slowly dying and I wanted to eat it, but not just eat it plain and outright. And this morning, I was in the mood for an actual breakfast, so I decided to make something new. After making it, I definitely saw where I could improve in the actual cooking method, so this is the improved recipe!

BANANA FRENCH TOAST
(no special utensils)

Ingredients:
1 banana, sliced
2 slices bread (I used Pepperidge Farm 7 grain Light Style - Healthy and low cal!)
1/4 c egg beaters
2 T skim milk
dash or two of ground cinnamon
1 tsp sugar
2 tsp flour
salt, a dash or two
pepper, a dash
cooking oil

Mix the egg beaters, milk, cinnamon, sugar, salt, pepper, and flour together in a flat bowl. Don't be worried about the flour lumping, but big lumps should be mixed in and small lumps are all ok. Heat pan (should be able to fit 2 pieces of bread) with 2 T cooking oil, coat bottom of pan. Use medium heat. When cooking oil has heated some, dip one piece of bread into mixture (all of it!) and place in pan. Let one side brown/cook and flip. Once you have flipped the bread, dip your other piece of bread and add to pan. On the first slice of bread, start stacking your banana slices. I used 2 layers. When the second slice of bread has cooked, place cooked side onto the bananas. Then, carefully flip the entire "sandwich" over so the last side of bread can be cooked. When this is done, plate, sprinkle some confectioner's sugar on top, add some banana slices.

Time from start to finish: about 7 minutes
Serving size: 1 person


This was pretty delicious and considering I used bread that between the 2 pieces were only 90 calories, egg beaters, and skim milk, this was pretty healthy!
