This is a recipe from Cafe 222 located in San Diego. My husband & I saw this on one of the food channels years ago and immediately had to make this! IT IS SO GOOD! Ingredients:
6 slices day old white or wheat bread |
1 to 2 ripe bananas |
8 tbsp creamy peanut butter |
honey, for drizzling |
4 eggs |
1/4 cup heavy cream |
1 tbsp vanilla (i use less!) |
1 tbsp dark rum |
1/2 tsp cinnamon |
1/4 tsp nutmeg |
zest of 1/2 orange |
dash salt |
butter or oil for frying |
powdered sugar, for topping |
maple syrup, for topping |
Directions:
1. Remove crust from bread. Lay out on counter and spread a thin layer of peanut butter on each slice. Peel banana and slice enough to cover every other slice of bread. (You will be making 3 complete sandwiches). Drizzle a small amount of honey on each piece of bread that does not have a banana on it. (These are the tops). Place honey piece of drizzled bread on top of a piece with bananas on it to make a sandwich. Repeat until you have 3 sandwiches.
2. In a shallow medium sized bowl, gently whip, by hand, the eggs, cream, vanilla, rum, cinnamon, nutmeg, orange zest & salt.
3. Heat skillet to a medium heat, until butter (or oil) melts and begins to sizzle. Dip one sandwich at a time into rum batter and place into skillet. Cook until golden brown (about 3-4 minutes before turning) on each side. Remove from skillet and cut in 1/2 diagonally. Top with butter, powdered sugar & syrup.
4. Enjoy!
