Step 1: Prepare the Bread - Start by trimming the crusts off the slices of bread. This step is crucial for rolling them up neatly. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice slightly, making it easier to roll.
Step 2: Spread the Peanut Butter - Evenly spread about 1 tablespoon of creamy peanut butter on each slice of flattened bread, leaving a small margin around the edges.
Step 3: Add the Bananas - Sprinkle the diced banana evenly over the peanut butter on each slice. You can adjust the amount of banana based on your personal preference.
Step 4: Roll It Up - Carefully roll each slice of bread tightly from one end to the other, ensuring the filling stays inside. Secure the edges with a bit of peanut butter if necessary.
Step 5: Whisk the Egg Mixture - In a mixing bowl, whisk together the large egg and milk until well combined. This mixture will create the egg wash for your roll-ups.
Step 6: Dip the Roll-Ups - Dip each rolled-up piece into the egg mixture, making sure to coat it evenly. Allow any excess to drip off before moving to the skillet.
Step 7: Heat the Skillet - In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once it’s sizzling, place the roll-ups seam-side down in the skillet.
Step 8: Fry Until Golden - Cook the roll-ups for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Step 9: Serve & Enjoy - Once cooked, transfer the roll-ups to a plate. Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with maple syrup for that sweet finishing touch. Enjoy your Peanut Butter Banana French Toast Roll Ups fresh and warm!
