Ingredients

  • 2 large free range eggs
  • 60ml whole milk
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 4 slice/s brioche (from a 400g sliced loaf)
  • 25g unsalted butter
  • 460ml tub Hackney Gelato Banana, Caramel & Pecan
  • Président Crème Spray Cream
  • 50g banana chips, roughly chopped (optional)
  • 50g roasted & salted pecans, roughly chopped (optional)

Method

  1. Lightly beat the eggs in a large, shallow dish. Whisk in the milk, cinnamon and a pinch of salt. Dip a brioche slice into the egg mixture, turning once, then put on a plate. Repeat with the remaining brioche.

  2. Heat the butter in a large, nonstick frying pan over a medium heat until foaming. Add the brioche slices (you may need to do this in 2 batches) and cook for 2-4 minutes until golden, then flip the slices over and cook for 1-2 minutes on the other side.

  3. To serve, cut the brioche slices in ½ diagonally, then divide between plates. Top each with 1-2 scoops of ice cream, a generous squirt of spray cream and scatter with the banana chips and pecans, if using.
