For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the egg mixture. If you don't have orange liqueur, you can substitute with an equal amount of orange juice or omit it entirely. Leftover Banana Stuffed French Toast can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving. Serve with fresh berries, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an even more decadent treat.

Follow The Directions
01
StepUsing a sharp paring knife, carefully create a pocket about 2/3 of the way into each slice of French bread by slicing along one of the long edges. Be careful not to cut all the way through. (5 minutes)
02
StepGently stuff each pocket with 2-3 banana slices, ensuring they are evenly distributed. (10 minutes)
03
StepIn a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, milk, vanilla extract, orange liqueur, and orange zest until well combined and slightly frothy. (2 minutes)
04
StepHeat a medium skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the butter and allow it to melt completely, coating the surface of the pan. (3 minutes)
05
StepDip each stuffed bread slice into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well saturated. Allow excess egg to drip off before placing in the skillet. (5 minutes)
06
StepPlace a few slices of the soaked French toast in the hot skillet, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. (6-8 minutes)
07
StepRemove the cooked French toast from the skillet and place on a serving platter. Dust generously with confectioners' sugar. Serve immediately with warmed maple syrup or your favorite toppings. (2 minutes)
