Ingredients:

  • 4 thick slices of bread
  • 2 large eggs
  • 100ml milk
  • 20g freeze-dried Pisang Mas Banana, finely chopped
  • 4g real vanilla beans (about 2 vanilla pods)
  • Butter for frying
  • Salt to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • Optional: cheese, ham, or bacon for filling

Instructions:

  1. Split the vanilla pods lengthwise and scrape out the seeds. Whisk the vanilla seeds with eggs, milk, a pinch of salt, and chopped freeze-dried banana in a shallow dish.
  2. Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add butter.
  3. Dip each bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated.
  4. Place the bread slices in the skillet and cook until golden brown on both sides.
  5. For a savory twist, add cheese and ham or bacon between two slices of French toast while they’re still in the pan, allowing the cheese to melt and the ham or bacon to warm through.
  6. Serve hot, with a sprinkle of black pepper over the top.
