The Kitchn: French toast kebabs ideal for Mother's Day gathering

By Kaitlin Flannery on

French toast is incredibly delicious, but it's not exactly portable -- especially when topped with bananas and caramel. Because of this, it has never been an option for my brunch parties since I just don't have enough chairs around my dining room table to accommodate my guests.

Thankfully, threading French toast cubes onto kebabs totally solves the problem while, at the same time, making the dish more fun. You get all the flavors and textures you love in French toast, and you still have a free hand to hold a mimosa!

I like to use sourdough for French toast because I find it has more structural integrity than brioche or challah (which is particularly important for this application since it's on a skewer). Slice the bananas as thick or as thin as you like, and thread them whichever way you think looks best. For a little extra kick, add a couple tablespoons of rum to the caramel sauce before drizzling over the kebabs.
