by Jessica West
serves: 4
  Add some fanciness to your french toast. Cooks in 10 minutes.
Ingredients:
  6   Eggs
  1/4 Cup   Milk
  4   Bananas
  1/4 Cup   Coarsley chopped walnuts
  1/8 Tsp   Nutmeg
  8 Slices   Thick bread
  4 Tbl   Butter
    Confectionor's sugar (for dusting)
    Maple Syrup
Directions:
  In a large shallow bowl, using a fork, beat the eggs until lightly frothy. Stir in the milk and set aside. Peel the bananas into a small bowl and mash them with a fork. Stir in the walnuts and the nutmeg.

Spread the banana mixture over the 1/2 of the bread slices, leaving a 1/4-inch border uncovered on all edges. Top with the remaining bread slices and press down gently to seal.

Place 2 sandwiches in the egg mixture and press down gently. Turn over and let soak for a moment until evenly saturated on both sides. Repeat with the other 2 remaining sandwiches.

In a frying pan or on a griddle, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Place the sandwiches on griddle and fry until the undersides are golden brown, about 2 minutes. Add the remaining butter, flip the sandwiches with a spatula and fry until golden brown.

To serve place the toast on plates and dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve with maple syrup or jam.
