Very good recipe. Thanks for posting this. I used the extra banana and about half again as much milk as called for. There was a great banana flavour and it made enough egg/milk liquid for all but the ends of a large loaf of french bread. This was a really good birthday breakfast for my son. I served it with the Cinnamon Banana Maple Syrup from Recipe #445865. A match made in banana heaven!

This was good, but I agree with ShortieNJ, I wanted a little bit more banana flavor so I will add extra banana next time. Thanks for posting Chef Greaneyes!

this was good, just not a lot of banana flavor like i expected. and, unfortuneately, kept sticking to the pan. oh, well.

This is so good! I made half a recipe and would have liked to enjoy all four slices but restrained and ate only two. It has a nice banana flavor. I added the cinnamon to the blender and it mixed right up with no problems incorporating the cinnamon. I topped mine with a bit of Carmel Sundae Syrup ( A girl's gotta let loose somewhere) and had to keep myself from licking the plate clean. Made for PAC Fall 2008
