Banana Stuffed French Toast

Slice batard/whole loaf into 2-inch thick portions (do not include ends). Then slice each portion in the middle without going all the way through. Set aside.

In a small bowl, combine sliced bananas, brown sugar and cinnamon powder. Mix well to coat banana slices evenly. Divide banana mixture and stuff into each bread portion.

In a bowl big enough to fit bread portions, combine eggs, NESTLÉ® Fresh Milk, NESTLÉ® All Purpose Cream, and vanilla extract. Whisk until no lumps are visible. Soak stuffed bread into egg mixture for at least 1 minute per side.

Heat a non-stick pan and melt butter. Pan-grill soaked bread on all sides until golden brown.

For the chocolate sauce: In a saucepan over low fire, heat butter and NESTLÉ® All Purpose Cream. Add semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir continuously until chocolate chips are melted. Transfer to a bowl and cool.

Serve with chocolate sauce and some more whipped NESTLÉ® All Purpose Cream if desired.
