Tonga Toast at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort

Ingredients: 

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon 
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/3 cup whole milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 
  • 1 quart canola oil, for frying
  • 1 loaf sourdough bread (uncut, 12 inches long)
  • 2 large bananas, peeled 

Recipes

Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a medium-sized bowl. Set aside. Then, whip eggs in a medium bowl– beat thoroughly. Add milk, cinnamon, and sugar. Mix well and set aside.   

For Tonga Toast: 

Using caution, preheat oil to 350°F in a large pot or a deep fryer. (If using a large pot, use a candy thermometer to make certain the oil does not get any hotter or it will burn.) 

Slice the bread into four three-inch-thick slices. 

Cut each banana in half crosswise, then each piece lengthwise. 

Place a bread slice flat on the counter and tear out just enough from the middle (do not tear all the way through) to stuff half a banana into; repeat with each bread slice. 

Dip stuffed bread into batter, covering both sides, allowing excess batter to drip off bread and place carefully into hot oil. 

Cook 4-5 minutes until golden brown. If needed, turn toast over after 2 minutes and cook for another 2 minutes on other side. Remove and drain excess oil. 

Roll toast in cinnamon-sugar. Repeat for each piece of toast.

McDonald’s sausage and egg McMuffin

There’s nothing like the real deal, but McDonald’s shared its sausage-and-egg McMuffin recipe and so far reviews coming in seem like it could be the real deal!

Ingredients

An English muffin

75g Sausage meat

Eggs

American Cheese Slice 

Potato 

Method

– Toast the English muffin until golden brown. 

– Season with a pinch of salt and pepper then shape into balls. Flatten into patty shapes and cook under a pre-heated grill for six to seven minutes on each side (or as per instructions on packaging).

– Brush the inside of a metal ring with a little oil and place in a small frying pan. Pour in just enough water to cover the base then bring to the boil. Crack the eggs into the rings, cover the pan and cook for two-three minutes.

– Assemble your McMuffin by layering the patty and egg on top of a slice of cheese.

– To make a hash brown, grate the potato into a bowl. Mix in an egg, then season with salt and pepper. Heat a glug of oil in a pan then add spoonfuls of the mix. Flatten and cook until golden brown on both sides.
