Breakfast is one of those times that I often find myself rushing around scrambling in an attempt to get food on the table. Either I just didn’t get enough sleep (working late), or I just have too much to do to get everyone out the door in time. However, as crazy as it may sound, it happens to be my favorite meal.

There’s just something about breakfast foods. Not only is it the meal that starts your day, but there are so many delicious options. Plus, typical breakfast foods don’t always have to be just for the mornings.

I remember when I was a teenager, my best friend and I would make french toast every other day after school. Sometimes, more often than that. I guess you can say it was our thing.

Fast forward many years later, and I don’t get the chance to make french toast anywhere near as often as I used to back then. However, I do have some opportunities to share my love of french toast with my kids.

Sir Bananas™ Chocolate Bananamilk

Then I found a new idea to add a twist of flavor. One of the main ingredients in french toast is milk. So why not use chocolate milk, bananamilk, or even better, chocolate bananamilk in french toast?  That’s exactly what I thought when I saw Sir Bananas™ Chocolate Bananamilk. It’s made with real bananas and cocoa with no artificial colors or flavors. So adding it to the recipe in place of regular milk not only add 8 essential nutrients, but also gives the recipe a whole new taste with such a little switch.

To add another twist to one of my favorites, I also like to make french toast muffins. It is quick to prep and I can work on getting everything else ready in the morning while it bakes.

This recipe makes 12 muffins. The ingredients can easily be cut in half to make 6 muffins, which is what I did for the pictures. 

Ingredients:

  • 1½ cup Sir Bananas™ Chocolate Bananamilk
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 10 slices of thick Texas toast bread, cut in cubes or torn in pieces
  • Mini chocolate chips
  • 1 banana, sliced (or diced)

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Then coat a muffin tin with cooking spray generously. You can also use a silicone muffin tray, which makes it easier to remove the baked muffins. Set aside.

You can top the muffins with a little maple syrup, if desired.

We also serve the muffins with fresh bananas and the thick & creamy Sir Bananas™ Bananamilk (2% milk with real bananas). It’s a healthy drink the kids (and myself) love. The combination is just deliciously right.

    What an adorable, yummy twist on french toast! My kiddos will go crazy over these!

    What if you don’t have access to chocolate bananamilk?

    • Samantha (author)

      You could use chocolate milk instead. If you want more banana flavor that just on the top, I would recommend smashing a ripe banana and adding it to the mixture or if it is too thick, just into each muffin between the bread layers before baking.
