Yum, this is so flavorful and delicious. The blend of banana and macadamia nuts in the egg mixture is great. I used cinnamon, and baking it makes it easy to make a bunch all at once. I halved the recipe and ended up with enough egg mixture for 6 slices of bread. Thanks for sharing! ZWT8

What a nice treat for brekky. I made enough for one, it worked perfectly. Nice subtle flavors in this dish. The french toast was puffy and tender. I did add the eggs to the blender, garnished with bananas and macadamia nuts. Thanks for sharing MomLuvs6. Made for Fearless Red Dragons - ZWT8 - Mexico.
