1 cup half-and-half or milk, 4 eggs, 1 pinch salt, 1/4 cup confectioner's sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dip only one side of one piece of bread into the batter. Place the dipped slice, batter side down, onto waxed paper. Layer the top of that slice with bananas.
6 thick bread slices, 2 bananas, sliced
Dip a second slice of bread into the batter on *both* sides. Place on top of the banana layer, making a sandwich.
Place pecans onto a saucer or small plate. Remove the sandwich from the waxed paper and place it on top of the pecans, pressing down lightly to help stick them into the bread. Flip the sandwich over and repeat.
1 cup chopped pecans
Heat 1 tablespoon or so of oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Place sandwich in skillet and cook until lightly brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining slices to make two more servings.
