Copycat Disney’S French Toast With Caramel Sauce

• 7 tablespoons unsalted butter divided, plus more if needed
• 1/2 cup light brown sugar packed
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt plus a pinch more
• 3/4 cup heavy cream
• 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract divided
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 8 slices brioche bread
• powdered sugar
• 2 bananas sliced

1. For caramel sauce, in a medium-sized saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Whisk in brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt until well combined.
2. Whisk in heavy cream and let come to a lively simmer, then reduce heat to low to keep warm, stirring occasionally. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla.
3. For French toast, in a shallow dish or pie plate, beat eggs, milk, cinnamon, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, and a pinch of salt together until the eggs are well beaten and no clumps of egg white are visible.
4. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter.
5. Dip 3 slices brioche into egg mixture, 10 to 20 seconds per side, then transfer to the hot skillet, arranging them somewhat apart (don't overcrowd the skillet).
6. Fry until deep golden brown, then flip to brown the other side, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
7. Repeat to cook remaining slices of brioche, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
8. Serve French toast immediately with caramel sauce, powdered sugar, and bananas on top.
