Banana Bread French Toast With Crme Frache, This recipe comes from the April 1st, 2007 Chicago Tribune The original recipe is by JeanMarie Brownson We made it for my dad’s birthday on Easter this year — it was a huge hit Top with sliced bananas, and powdered sugar, and serve with dollops of marmalade and Crme Frache on the side Personally, we all could have done without the marmalade and just gone with the creme fraiche or sour cream We used Emeril’s banana bread recipe, but of course, you can use store-bought banana bread If you use your own recipe, make sure that the consistency is more like cake than like the moist bread — otherwise it will fall apart in the pan , This recipe comes from the April 1st, 2007 Chicago Tribune The original recipe is by JeanMarie Brownson We made it for my dad’s birthday on Easter this year — it was a huge hit Top with sliced bananas, and powdered sugar, and serve with dollops of marmalade and Crme Frache on the side Personally, we all could have done without the marmalade and just gone with the creme fraiche or sour cream We used Emeril’s banana bread recipe, but of course, you can use store-bought banana bread If you use your own recipe, make sure that the consistency is more like cake than like the moist bread — otherwise it will fall apart in the pan
