    List of Ingredients




    Sauce:
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 cup light brown sugar
    4 bananas, sliced lengthwise
    1/2 cup bourbon

    Batter:
    6 large eggs
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons vanilla
    1/2 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
    4 to 8 tablespoons butter
    8 slices country-style white bread (preferably 4 to 7 days old)
    Maple syrup, optional

    Recipe



    To make sauce: In a small pan, melt butter and brown sugar over medium heat; carefully add bananas and simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from stove and add bourbon; return to flame and continue simmering an additional 2 minutes. Cover and keep warm until ready to use.

    To make batter: In a large bowl, lightly whisk eggs and salt. Add vanilla. Pour in cream, continuing to whisk until well blended.

    Melt 1 to 2 tablespoons butter in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip 2 bread slices in batter and cook each side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread slices.

    Transfer 2 bread slices to individual plates and top with banana slices and sauce. Serve with maple syrup, if desired.

    Makes 4 servings.
