Ingredients:
- 10 slices sandwich bread
- 3 Bananas, sliced thinly
- 3-4 tbsp Butter
- 1 tbsp Sugar (for sautéing bananas)
- 2 Eggs
- 3 tbsp Milk
- 1/3 cup sugar (for coating)
- 1/2 – 1 tsp Cinnamon
- Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat and melt about 1 – 1/2 tbsp of butter. Add sliced bananas and 1 tbsp sugar. Sauté until golden.
- In a separate bowl, mix the remaining sugar with cinnamon and set aside. In another bowl, beat the eggs with milk.
- Remove the crusts from the bread slices and flatten them using a rolling pin. Spread about 1-2 teaspoons of the banana mixture along one edge of each bread slice. Brush the opposite edge with the egg mixture.
- Roll up the bread tightly around the banana filling, ensuring the edge with the egg wash seals the roll. Repeat with all bread slices.
- Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a pan. Dip each roll into the egg mixture, then place them seam side down in the pan. Cook in batches, 3-4 rolls at a time.
- Brown each roll evenly on all sides by turning them a quarter turn as they cook.
- After cooking each batch, wipe the pan with a paper towel and repeat with the remaining rolls.
- Finally, roll the cooked rolls in the sugar-cinnamon mixture or dust them with powdered sugar. Serve warm for a delightful treat.
