Ingredients
- 2 eggs whole
- 2 egg whites
- 1 1/2 cups milk 1% (almond or soy will also work)
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 9 slices whole-grain bread
Filling
- 4 cups bananas sliced
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/3 cup walnuts raw, diced

Instructions
- Add the first 6 ingredients to a medium mixing bowl, whisk to combine. Lightly spray the inside of the slow cooker with nonstick cooking spray.
- Add all the filling ingredients in a small mixing bowl and stir to coat banana pieces, set aside.
- Cut bread slices into triangles (that's in half, just triangle-shaped). Place one layer of bread (6 triangles) on the bottom of the slow cooker, add 1/4 of the filling and repeat until there are 3 layers of bread. Add the remaining filling to the top.
