The Method

5 steps
  1. 1

    Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a wide shallow bowl until smooth.

  2. 2

    Soak each slice of bread for 20-30 seconds a side — the custard should saturate the slice without making it fall apart.

  3. 3

    Melt half the butter in a wide frypan over medium-low heat. Cook the bread 2 minutes a side until golden and just set. Plate up.

  4. 4

    Add the rest of the butter to the pan and turn the heat up. Lay in the banana slices, dust with extra sugar if you like, and cook 1 minute a side until they catch and caramelise.

  5. 5

    Top the toast with the bananas. Drizzle generously with golden syrup. Serve hot.
