1 ripe banana, peeled

1½ tablespoons maple syrup, or honey
1 teaspoon butter, divided
Preparation
Active
Ready In
Mash banana coarsely with a fork in a small, shallow bowl. Stir in orange-juice concentrate. Spread the banana mixture over 2 slices of bread and top with the remaining 2 slices of bread, forming 2 sandwiches.
Whisk together egg whites and milk in a shallow dish; add the sandwiches and soak for about 20 seconds. Turn the sandwiches over and soak for 20 seconds longer. Transfer the sandwiches to a plate.
Stir together yogurt and maple syrup (or honey) in a small bowl. Set aside.
Melt ½ teaspoon butter in a nonstick skillet over low heat. Tilt the pan to swirl the butter around the skillet. Place the sandwiches in the pan using a metal spatula, and cook until the underside is browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Lift the sandwiches and add the remaining ½ teaspoon butter. Turn over and cook until browned, 5 to 7 minutes longer. Serve with the sweetened yogurt.
Very good! Whole family loved it even my 1 yr old!! Added a little vanilla to the egg mixture and yogurt sauce! Very filling! Only con is this has to be the slowest cooking French toast I've ever made but worth the wait!

Not so great
The orange juice concetrate mixed with the bananas does NOT work! Maybe a little vanilla instead.
Pros: This sounds good on paper but not in reality.
Cons: Could be fixed.
