Creme BrûLéE Banana French Toast Bake

1. 1

   ["Preheat oven to 350 degrees. I used a 13 x 9 baking pan for this recipe.", "Lets start with the bananas and while they are cooking start the ""crust"". In a large non stick saute pan over medium low heat, melt the butter, brown sugar and cinnamon. Whisk until combined and then add in the bananas. Mix to coat then add the amaretto and allow the mixture to simmer for for approx 5-8 minutes until the alcohol is evaporated and the sauce is thickened. Set aside.", "For the crust, to a small saucepan, add the butter, brown sugar, corn syrup and vanilla. Continually mix while everything is melting together to prevent the sugar from burning. You want to allow it to simmer for about 5 minutes. The mixture will darken in color. Immediately pour the mixture into the bottom of the baking pan, it will begin to harden slightly.", "Now the rich custard... In a bowl whisk together all of the ingredients.", "To assemble, place a layer of the sliced bread overtop the ""crust"". Pour 1/3 of the custard over the bread. Next add another layer of bread and the bananas on top of that. Again pour over 1/3 of the custard. Add the final layer of bread and remaining custard. Sprinkle the entire thing with cinnamon.", "Bake in the oven for about 35-40 minutes or until the custard is set. Now the fun part... find a platter large enough to fit this gorgeous french toast bake. Place the platter on top of the baking pan and flip it over so the bake falls out onto the platter revealing that wonderful crust.... HEAVEN!!!"]
