Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil

- ¼ cup black walnuts or Nature's Eats Walnuts (sweeter taste try Nature's Eats Pecans)
- ¼ cup raw honey
- 8 eggs
- ¼ cup coconut milk, almond milk or cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla or 1 vanilla bean
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- Salt to taste
- 6-8 slices of your favorite bread (gluten-free bread is ok)
- ¼ cup maple syrup (optional)
Directions
Heat coconut oil in a medium skillet. Add bananas and sauté for 3 minutes. Add walnuts and honey. Continue to sauté for another minute, then remove from heat. Place to the side to cool.
In a medium bowl mix eggs, then add coconut milk, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until thoroughly blended, then pour into a shallow dish or pie plate.
Coat the inside of a nonstick skillet with cooking spray. Heat skillet over medium heat.
Take a slice of bread and dip into the egg mixture, thoroughly coating the bread on both sides. Place slice in skillet. Continue to add more slices, and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side or until done.
Top each slice with banana mixture and maple syrup. Serve immediately.
Each bite of this recipe tastes so delicious! It has an amazing sweet flavor, and crunch from the black walnuts along with their bitter taste. The black walnuts pair nicely with the sweetness of the fruit and honey. It is hard to believe that this is breakfast as it is so tasty, just like dessert.
