Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine the eggs, milk, sugar, fresh cream (if using), and vanilla (if using). Whisk the ingredients well until fully combined. Strain the mixture through a sieve into another bowl to ensure a smooth texture. Set aside.

  2. Slice the banana into small rounds. Take the slices of bread and carefully cut out the center of each slice, creating a hollow frame. Crumble the removed center pieces, mix them into a paste-like texture, and spread it over the hollowed bread frames.

  3. Heat a pan over low heat and melt a small amount of unsalted butter. Place the hollowed bread slices in the pan and toast until golden. In the same pan, lightly fry the banana slices for about 6 minutes. Cooking them enhances their flavor and sweetness. Pour the prepared egg mixture gently over the bread, ensuring even coverage. Place the bread back in the pan and bake or fry the bread on low heat until the egg mixture is set and the bread is golden.
