Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas
- 1 tbsp maple syrup, plus extra to serve
- 2 eggs
- 50ml milk
- 50ml double cream
- drop of vanilla extract
- 50g caster sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- pinch of nutmeg
- 1 large brioche loaf, cut into 4 x 2in slices
- 100g butter
- vanilla yogurt, to serve
Method
- STEP 1
Peel and slice the bananas, mash with the maple syrup and set aside. Place the eggs, milk, cream, vanilla, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg in a wide, shallow bowl and whisk to combine.
- STEP 2
Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Using a sharp knife, slice open each slice of brioche from the top to form a pocket, leaving at least 1cm around the edges. Stuff the pockets with the banana mix. Soak the stuffed brioche in the egg mix for 30 secs on each side.
- STEP 3
In a large non-stick pan, melt half the butter. When sizzling, place the brioche in the pan and fry for 2 mins each side until golden. You may have to do this in batches. Transfer to the oven to warm through for 5 mins. Serve drizzled with extra maple syrup and a spoonful of vanilla yogurt.
