TO MAKE THE TOPPING:

In a medium sauce pan, combine bananas, orange juice, sugar and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes or until the bananas become very soft.

With a slotted spoon, transfer bananas to blender. Add 1/4 cup liquid from the pan and puree until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap in medium bowl and chill until cold (at least 2 hours).

Just before removing banana mixture from the refridgerator, beat whipping cream in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Remove banana puree and fold into the whipping cream.

TO MAKE FRENCH TOAST:

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon and vanilla.

Dip bread slices into egg mixture, coating both sides generously.

On a griddle or skillet at medium heat, melt butter and then cook slices until each side is golden-brown. You can place completed French Toast slices on a serving plate in an oven set to 100 degrees -- to keep finished slices warm as you cook the others.

TO BRING IT ALL TOGETHER:

Top each serving of French Toast with a generous dollop of the banana cream topping. A couple of fresh banana slices placed on or around the toast provides the perfect delicious garnish.

The French toast was good. The topping was excellent. Might add a drop of banana flavor extract to the egg batter next time so I get banana flavor throughout everything.

I'm rating the topping only. It was fantastic. Used a different french toast recipe so I can't comment on that... but the topping... mmmm mmm.

Hi.

When making the topping you only use 1/4 of the liquid. what do you do with the other 3/4 left over? Thanks.
