Chocolate Chip Banana Bread French Toast

There are few ways that you could improve banana bread. One of those ways to improve your banana bread is to add chocolate chips. You might think that would be the end of your improvement to the already delicious banana bread, but you would be wrong. A few years back I remember seeing on the internet a breakfast that sounded irresistible. It was french toast made with slices of banana bread. I thought that the idea was absolutely brilliant. I have now finally made it happen and it was the bomb. If you are trying to impress someone this is definitely a recipe to try.

Ingredients:
day old slices of Chocolate Chip Banana Bread
3 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/3 cup canola oil

Method:
In a medium sized frying pan, heat the canola oil over medium heat. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Dunk the banana bread slices into the egg mixture for about 10 seconds so that it is fully coated. When the oil has reached the proper frying temperature, place the coated pieces of banana bread into the oil. Cook for 3 minutes on each side of the french toast. The total cooking time should be 6 minutes per piece of french toast. I like to cover the pan while I am frying the french toast so that it cooks through all of the way. Serve the banana bread french toast with real maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh fruit.
