Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 10 slices sandwich bread
- 2 bananas
- 2 eggs
Liquid Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup (79 milliliters) milk
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Seasoning and Cooking Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 grams) cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons (25 grams) granulated sugar
- Butter for frying (approximately 2 tablespoons or 28 grams)
Instructions
- Gently press each bread slice with a rolling pin to create a thin, pliable surface.
- Arrange banana segments along one edge of the flattened bread, ensuring even distribution.
- Carefully roll the bread into a tight cylinder, securing the banana slices inside.
- Create a smooth egg mixture by whisking eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon in a wide, shallow container.
- Submerge each bread roll completely in the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.
- Heat a skillet over medium temperature (around 350°F) and melt butter until it shimmers.
- Position the rolls seam-side down in the skillet, rotating to achieve an even golden-brown exterior on all sides (approximately 2-3 minutes per side).
- Transfer the crispy rolls to a plate dusted with granulated sugar, rotating to coat the entire surface.
- Serve immediately while warm and crisp, with optional drizzles of maple syrup or additional cinnamon sprinkle.
Notes
- Choose soft, fresh white bread for the best texture and easiest rolling.
- Ensure bread is flattened evenly to prevent uneven cooking and messy rolls.
- Use ripe bananas with few brown spots for maximum sweetness and smooth filling.
- Optional variations include using cream cheese, Nutella, or different fruit fillings for diverse flavor profiles.
