French toast made waffle-style and covered with the most AMAZING mocha caramelized banana sauce ever! You’d never guess it’s ready in only 20 minutes!
I’m here to formally announce that your weekend is freaking.MADE!
Yours truly made us all a pretty sweet breakfast in other words. Is it a waffle? Is it french toast? Does it matter? It’s covered with MOCHA caramelized bananas.
And a bounty of powdered sugar. Aaaaaaaand…I’m pretty sure that whole gorgeous plate up there ^^^ is mine.
Sharing is clearly an overrated practice when it comes to things like this.
Remember that one time we went crazy with the caramelized banana sauce on coconut crepes? Today is similar to that day as in it’s neck-and-neck with being the best day ever.
I wouldn’t rule it out. We did add chocolate and coffee to our bananas this time around.
Also, FRENCH TOAST pretending to be a waffle. And also, I’m never going back to cooking french toast on a skillet again. It’s almost frighteningly easy to cook ’em on the waffle iron plus it makes them a two-in-one kinda breakfast deal.
They’re cutest and the best idea since mocha caramelized banana sauce became a thing.
A very good thing and I would highly recommend piling it high and plentiful upon your gorgeous waffled french toast.
So the goal for this weekend…is to eat as much of this heaven as humanely possible. ♥
