Grilled French Toast Skewers with Bananas and Honey
- 1/2 loaf brioche, cut into 1- to 2-inch cubes
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 4 large eggs
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Kosher salt
- Cooking spray
- 2 bananas, halved lengthwise
- Grapeseed or canola oil, for brushing
- Honey or maple syrup, for serving
- Special equipment: eight to ten 12-inch skewers
- Thread 6 brioche cubes onto each skewer, leaving 1/4 inch of space between cubes; leave out overnight to dry.
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- Whisk together the buttermilk, eggs, butter, sugar, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a baking dish; soak the skewers in the mixture for 5 minutes, turning as needed.
- Spray a large piece of foil with cooking spray and place it on one side of the grill grate.
- Lay the skewers on the foil, leaving about an inch of space between them.
- Grill, covered, turning occasionally, until golden, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, brush the bananas with oil and place cut-sides down on the other side of the grill grate (not on the foil).
