Steps

  1. Place banana in a shallow bowl or rectangular baking dish. Mash well with a fork. (Alternatively, you can blend banana, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, and almond extract in the blender.)
  2. Add eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, and almond extract to the dish. Whisk to combine.
  3. Heat a large skillet over medium low heat. Once hot, add 1/2 tbsp butter.
  4. Dunk bread slices in mixture, flipping to make sure they're coated on both sides. (Don't let bread sit in the mixture for too long or it may fall apart and be too moist.)
  5. Once butter is melted and sizzling and spread all over the pan, add 1-2 bread slices. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until golden, then flip and cook another minute. Transfer to a plate.
  6. Melt another 1/2 tbsp butter and cook remaining bread. Serve with fruit and a dusting of powdered sugar if you're feeling fancy!
