Well, you come back to you come back to your baked brioche French toast with caramelized banana and cashews completely covered in a snow storm of icing sugar and 2 proud of themselves kids. Look mama, we made your French toast much better. Fair enough 🙂 especially as they even remembered how much I like adding daisies for food photography. Seems like I am passing on some food styling skills without even thinking about it.

So, reasons to make this baked brioche French toast with caramelized banana and cashews:

It is so easy to make – the kiddoes can whip this up in their sleep It is baked –  aka more you time as no frying. The brioche adds a richness to the French toast that traditional recipes don’t have. Caramelised banana AND caramelized cashews (can I get a yum) You can prep this ahead overnight and bake in the morning (you are stronger than me if you can last that long) Plus do you really need a reason to make French toast?

I do have one other reason to make this. That is making more sister friendly food. She struggles with digesting normal milk so has had to cut back on her favourite milk based recipes. Luckily, we came across a2 Milk – aka easier to digest milk that has only the a2 protein, not the a1 protein that has been discovered to cause bloating and all sort of digestive problems in some people. This has made such a huuuuuge change to her that she ‘demands’ another and another a2 Milk related recipe whenever we make plans to visit. Oh peeps, she is happy, which mean I am happy. The cooking is just a bonus. This brioche baked French toast is breakfast, brunch and make the kiddoes happy all rolled into one food. Plus, it makes a pretty awesome “brinner” too. I mean what’s a girl to do when faced with easy leftover baked brioche French toast at dinner time, apart from grab a bowl, fill it to the erm erm brim, add in some strawberries, sink down into the sofa and tuck right in
