Frenching... with toast, bananas and blueberries

Lazy Monday afternoon.


Wine: 2005 Bouchard Aine & Fils (Bourgone Region) Pinot Noir.

Banana & Blueberry French toast - or Gorgeous French Toast.

All you have to do is get two nice slices of toast and butter (yes, gasp! butter, which itself is the secret to life I have been told) them on both sides.

In a small bowl, mash up 1 or 2 ripe bananas. when mashed, mix in a handful of blueberries.

Beat a couple of naughty eggs (the naughtier the better I always say) in a large bowl with a couple of small teaspoons of sugar and 1 tsp of really really really good vanilla - the fake stuff is a huge non.

Dip both sides of the bread in the mixture - let the excess drip off and place in your preheated and buttered frying pan.
Put a few tablespoons of the banana mixture onto the bread and spread evenly while it is frying.

Dip another buttered slice of bread into the mixture (as above) and place on top of the first piece and press down so that the fruit is pressed into the bread (don't worry, it will all cook through).

Flip to ensure even cooking. Once the bread is golden and slight crispy, serve with a dollop of creme fraiche or whipped cream, and any left over fruit mixture.

Best served with a a glass of my favourite wine (mentioned above) in your pj's with your dog looking up at you longingly for a bite.

Mon dieu! Quelle orgasmic!
