Ingredients

• 12 slices brioche bread (or your favorite bread)
• 6 tablespoons butter

Custard

• 4 eggs
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 1 1/2 cups half and half or milk
• 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Topping

• 6 tablespoons butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 1/4 cup rum 
• 2 firm bananas, peeled and sliced

Here's how to make it: 

1. To make the custard, combine all the ingredients in a shallow dish. 
2. To make the topping, melt the butter in a skillet. Add the brown sugar and maple syrup. Cook until sugar has melted and it thickens, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the bananas. Remove from the heat and add the rum. Return to the heat and cook, stirring, about 3 minutes. 
3. Melt 1 tablespoon of the butter in a skillet. Dip the bread, two slices at a time, into the custard. Remove and let the excess drip back into the bowl. Cook the bread for about 2 to 3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining bread, adding more butter each time. 
4. To serve, spoon the banana topping over the hot French toast.
