Banana Coconut Bread Toast

         Now this is wonderful Indian French toast..which is completely vegetarian...My own experiment...Im a person very fond of sweet french toasts....Later I discovered Sweet n Spicy French Toasts which was a grand success...But found that most of my veggie friends couldn't give it a try since the main ingredient of French toasts is "Egg"...So was in a thought to make the batter eggless & found bananas as the best option.....

           The batter is a mixture of mashed bananas & coconut milk with a perfect aroma of cardamom powder...topped with a sweet syrup of coconut & jaggery...Just loved the new combo..Give it a try..
