goat cheese and raspberry banana bread french toast

if you don't believe your ears, believe your eyes.
this recipe was inspired by my good friend michael. he worked on the top goat cheese farm in the country, here in our state of south carolina. i say "top" goat cheese farm, because they supply the goat cheese for more restaurants than i can name off, and they have been ranked number one in the nation for their goat cheese fudge and feta. he brought us some raspberry goat cheese once and recommended we try it on french toast. so i added a little twist with banana bread, fresh raspberries, and voila!

goat cheese and raspberry banana bread french toast

ingredients:
  • banana bread [ recipe found here]
  • 100% pure maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp. crumbled goat cheese
  • 1 egg
  • splash of milk
  • 2 tsp. brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries, rinsed 
  • 1/2 tbsp. butter
start by heating 1/2 tbsp. butter on medium high heat. whisk the egg in a wide dish and add a splash of milk and 1 tsp. of brown sugar. dip two slices of the banana bread into the egg mixture, making sure both sides are covered. transfer the banana bread to the pan and heat each side until golden and crispy, about 4 minutes [ keep an eye on them so they do not burn. ] once the french toast is cooked, place the bread on a plate and assemble--sprinkle with the goat cheese and raspberries, topping it off with a tsp. of brown sugar. finally, lather on the good stuff [ maple syrup, that is. ]
