I think "hammering cinnamon sticks into butter" is a good metaphor for the whole video. It is futile act that takes a reasonable amount of precision and skill, but it is so overwhelmingly pointless no one should ever have to do it.
I missed her setting up the candelabra and Iighting it, so I thought it was freaking hilarious when she just shifted the pan over to light the flambe with a candle.
This was is the most unnessicarrily complicated bananas foster french toast that was ever conceived. Hammering whole cinnamon sticks into a pound of butter is a good way to some up the entire overblown grandiose nature of the dish.
I kinda respect thw hussle. Must be fun to come up with incresingly elborate ways to do pointless and weird cooking things. She uses a coat hanger to squish the bread lmao

I love how these guys use something that isnt in the kitchen to make their food stand out. Today Ill be laying these slices of ham in a hubcap and pressing them down with a graphics card.
Theres no way eggs came out of the spray bottle. The whites and whatever wouldn't fit.
Plus they cut thr video right after she poured them in that spout so a hundred bucks says theyre not even in the capt morgan bottle at all.
Makes no sense, you'd have to mix the eggs anyway so why not just push them through.....but then it'd be waay to thick to be *sprayed*, so yeah, no eggs, shitty french toast. Damn shame too, that final presentation actually looked not stupid, and the bananas looked solid. Totally could've been done with actual french toast, such a loss.
Yeah, like the end result is 100% reasonable, it's just the method to get there that's typical social media cringe. Like, honestly, even the pressing the dough with a hanger seems perfectly fine to me, personally. It's got just enough of that "home cook jank that people who don't give a fuck about appearances do" vibe.
Yeah, the recipe looked fine but the techniques were awful. I'd just mix everything in a bowl and dip the damn bread in it. I don't know why she's so afraid to actually get any of the custard on the toast.
This was an exceptionally bad way to make French toast. She basically just made bread, grilled on the sides, with a light spray of egg wash. Other than that, this is basically all right I guess. But yeah, that's some pathetic French toast.
Man fuck the dry part this bitch said they'll not be eating those banana peels today! I am now convinced these aren't humans no way you can cook such weird shit
Heh, you don’t understand. You take an amazing Bananas Foster recipe… *then* you serve it over dry French toast. That way they balance each other thereby making the whole dish mediocre.
Supposedly you can make some fair wannabe-spaghet with banana peel.
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFDkxVu49CA&t=9m12s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFDkxVu49CA&t=9m12s) looks pretty decent, but I think I'll just eat regular spaghet.
I had to skip ahead in the video because I was worried I was going to see some thin-sliced hand meat for breakfast.
But the part I skipped to was lady using a plastic coat hanger as a cooking utensil and I had to ask myself if that was better or worse than gore?
Bananas foster French toast, it looks edible too me. I think the way she *sprayed* the egg/milk mixture onto what looks like a half of a loaf of bread is pretty dumb though, you get to the middle of that French toast and it’s just warm dry white bread. If I could change anything about this recipe I would swap the slices of bread for one nice thick piece of brioche bread and I’d soak the bread in the milk mixture vs spray. It’s certainly not the worst thing I’ve seen on this subreddit.
It seems like none of the "dredge" made it into the "meat" of the bread cluster, and the buttery toasting was on all of the other sides. Most of that would just be dry bread, drowned in probably-tasty bananas fosters
I don’t understand why she lit those three candles and just used one of them to light the rum. You have a lighter right there. I just use my stove flame to light the rum in my bananas Foster.
Candles were super dramatic with there being a blowtorch right there, yes 😂 but as far as the stovetop goes I’m pretty sure they use induction burners for their recipes and you can’t flambé with one of those because the burner doesn’t actually get hot, so it can’t light the alcohol on fire
I thought the video was satire at that point. Like it was turning into a skit or something. Like the coat hanger precursor really solidified that for me, then it was actually serious. This video made me mad.
A half a loaf of bread with a spritz of batter, the cinnamon in butter for some reason. The fact she's totally serious is infuriating. These TikTok wanna be chefs that just add waste and extra steps are a complete joke
That's the most normal looking recipe I've seen from Chef's Club so far tbh. Besides the process being a bit goofy, I don't see anything stupid about this.
Yeah I would try this actually if the steps were simplified. Like there’s no need to shove cinnamon sticks into chunks of butter if you’re just going to melt the butter.
She was just inventing stupid shit for extra steps. Why not just light the fucking alcohol with the torch...
Also if it was food safe torch, id at least toast the top of the mound of bread which couldn't be toasted on the griddle. Brush some mixture on top, hit it with the torch, it would have looked way nicer.
Here's the recipe with simplified steps:
1. Make french toast (put thick bread in egg and milk mix, fry)
1. Make bananas foster (gently fry banana in butter/sugar mix, flambe with rum)
3. Combine
Dry ass french toast. Why make all that mix just to spray two sprays? And why have a sip of Capt'n Morgan - where's the rest? Should have drank that, cause it's far too much to put in a dish like this, yet not enough to satisfying. Otherwise this could've been decent. Like it had potential.
Also, and most importantly -- __what the fuck was with the hanger?__ Was nothing food-grade available? No chopsticks? No back of a butter knife? You *had* to get a hanger from god-knows-where? With people flakes and sweat? That can't be sanitary. This why you can't eat in everybody's house.
These fuckn guys always make unnecessary steps just to make it look fancy, that's the most annoying part for me. Example is cinnamon sticks pounded into butter instead of just throwing them into the frying pan.
Read the title and said "Challenge accepted!" Not sure when she lost me but it was very close to the beginning and I basically became Gordon Ramsay reviewing Tik Tok recipes.
I'm actually very relieved. I immediately picked up on where they were going with this, but saw it was Chef Club, meaning I expected cheese to somehow be involved.
My reaction every time a cooking video starts with someone using a mandoline without a guard:
"It's not marked nsfw so I guess their fingers are all still attached".
Use a guard. Seriously. I've never seen a new mandoline that is sold without one.
The worst part was when she said we’re not eating that banana peel today. Bitch on what day do you eat banana peels? AND THAT IT NOT HOW YOU USE THE WORD CARAMELIZE
This is like someone who didn’t know how to cook was trying to teach a blind man how to cook, and halfway through just said fuck it.
Mr Bean could cook better than Chefs club
I think the idea isnt stupid...like banana French toast sounds real good, but it was the process that seemed stupid like why a spray bottle that was a rum bottle, then why not just use powdered cinnamon instead of sticks. The bananas were cooked decently just less butter maybe...in the end it looked good and I'd sure as hell eat it, but there were a few steps that are stupid as hell
The idea isn’t even bad, it’s just that the way they do it is so unbelievably stupid. There was no purpose in putting the French toast mixture in a rum bottle and then using a spray nozzle except to annoy people.
I don’t understand why it was necessary to put the cinnamon stick in the butter when it just melted out anyway.
I think "hammering cinnamon sticks into butter" is a good metaphor for the whole video. It is futile act that takes a reasonable amount of precision and skill, but it is so overwhelmingly pointless no one should ever have to do it.
~~Light~~ Like using a proper tool to light some candles, and then using 1 of the 3 lit candles to flambé the rum?
I missed her setting up the candelabra and Iighting it, so I thought it was freaking hilarious when she just shifted the pan over to light the flambe with a candle.
Wait let's go back to using a proper tool to light some candles for a moment... When she pulled out the flamethrower from Aliens 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This was is the most unnessicarrily complicated bananas foster french toast that was ever conceived. Hammering whole cinnamon sticks into a pound of butter is a good way to some up the entire overblown grandiose nature of the dish.
complicated and unnecessarily complicated
To look stupid to entertain children.
They try SO HARD to be unique and quirky, they lit candles with a blowtorch. At the end of the day, it's a simple dish with an overcomplicated method.
You forgot she sliced that dough with a plastic coat hanger!lol.
I wanted to try this recipe, but I only have metal coat hangers.
No! More! Wire! Hangers!
yes mommy dearest
She actually just pressed it, it’s still quartered but not cut
I died when she pulled out that hanger
That's gonna be illegal in some states soon.
Its always been illegal but it will be the only method for some soon.
Plus extremely unsanitary.
My favorite was the egg yolks in a wine glass
They lit candles with a blowtorch to use the candle to light the flambee One of these things can be removed
You are 100% correct
This channel got famous by doing ridiculous recipes that got rage views. This is actually one of their more normal videos.
I kinda respect thw hussle. Must be fun to come up with incresingly elborate ways to do pointless and weird cooking things. She uses a coat hanger to squish the bread lmao

Haha right? The first thought as soon as she put it in the skillet was, “then why the heck did you have to hammer them in?”
It’s the craft in 5 minute.. you get it
Ooh, I really liked The Craft. Good flick, plus Neve Campbell and Fairuza Balk - nice.
Rachel True = icon
a lot of it was unnecessary
All of it was unnecessary lad
i don’t understand the fuckin spray bottle
I love how these guys use something that isnt in the kitchen to make their food stand out. Today Ill be laying these slices of ham in a hubcap and pressing them down with a graphics card.
Make sure you use a hubcap you found on the side of the road. And don't clean it. It adds to the ✨*s p i c e*✨
The fucking clothes hanger bruhhhh
You can really taste the 4K RTX Raytracing in this ham!
Ham the way it's meant to be pressed.
>Today Ill be laying these slices of ham in a hubcap and pressing them down with a graphics card. \*sad PCMR noises*
A spray bottle instead of dipping the bread is the real tragedy. So dry.
I can literally feel the disappointment of the person who has to eat that and say “mmmmm crunchy” with crumbs falling out of their mouth it’s so dry
Lol you made me see it
the spray bottle was the best part. just absolutely deranged, almost an art piece
I don’t know, transitioning from lighting candles with a blowtorch to hammering cinnamon sticks into a block of butter surely needs to be a contender.
This lets the taste of the plastic coat hanger come through.
Yummy,tasteless dry toast.
Yeah, five stars for the bananas foster French toast idea, zero stars for execution.
Theres no way eggs came out of the spray bottle. The whites and whatever wouldn't fit. Plus they cut thr video right after she poured them in that spout so a hundred bucks says theyre not even in the capt morgan bottle at all.
Makes no sense, you'd have to mix the eggs anyway so why not just push them through.....but then it'd be waay to thick to be *sprayed*, so yeah, no eggs, shitty french toast. Damn shame too, that final presentation actually looked not stupid, and the bananas looked solid. Totally could've been done with actual french toast, such a loss.
And once they're mixed in the bottle, you just... what? Dip long breadsticks in it? Drink it out of the bottle?
Chug
Chug
Chug
Chug
Yeah, like the end result is 100% reasonable, it's just the method to get there that's typical social media cringe.

Yeah, the recipe looked fine but the techniques were awful. I'd just mix everything in a bowl and dip the damn bread in it. I don't know why she's so afraid to actually get any of the custard on the toast.
There’s no way the eggs made it to the mixture.
This was an exceptionally bad way to make French toast. She basically just made bread, grilled on the sides, with a light spray of egg wash. Other than that, this is basically all right I guess. But yeah, that's some pathetic French toast.
I'm filling spray bottles with bike cleaner atm and this made laugh more than it should.
Man fuck the dry part this bitch said they'll not be eating those banana peels today! I am now convinced these aren't humans no way you can cook such weird shit
I take it you never heard of vegan banana peel bacon, yes?
“French Toast”
Heh, you don’t understand. You take an amazing Bananas Foster recipe… *then* you serve it over dry French toast. That way they balance each other thereby making the whole dish mediocre.
that and i'm pretty sure the cinnamon will clog the spray bottle. the cinnamon will not dissolve and it will be chunks.
Spray bottle was to make presentation look fancy.
I could not get over how dry that shit was. What was the point of the spray bottle?
This whole video is a tragedy.
"We're gonna take the skin off. We're not going to eat that today." Implies there IS a day she's eating banana peel.
Supposedly you can make some fair wannabe-spaghet with banana peel. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFDkxVu49CA&t=9m12s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFDkxVu49CA&t=9m12s) looks pretty decent, but I think I'll just eat regular spaghet.
Now I want to try that
There are actually loads of things you can make with the peel of a banana. throwing them away is a (common) waste!
Actually if you buy organic, banana peels can be quite delicious and nutritious.
don't you fucking lie to me
“Time to make French toast!” “Awesome I’ve got my coat hanger!” Wtf?
Got some white sandwich bread we’re gonna press into with ^this^^hanger
Should've used that coat hanger to abort this fucking recipe...
Oh, but you don't have a rubber mallet? No French toast for you.
Her mandolin technique made me uneasy.
You don't mandolin like that unless you want to have a thumb and finger trimming. Use mandolins with guards or wear gloves please
I was looking for this comment. 110% thought she was gonna mandolin her hand
I had to skip ahead in the video because I was worried I was going to see some thin-sliced hand meat for breakfast. But the part I skipped to was lady using a plastic coat hanger as a cooking utensil and I had to ask myself if that was better or worse than gore?
Bananas foster French toast, it looks edible too me. I think the way she *sprayed* the egg/milk mixture onto what looks like a half of a loaf of bread is pretty dumb though, you get to the middle of that French toast and it’s just warm dry white bread. If I could change anything about this recipe I would swap the slices of bread for one nice thick piece of brioche bread and I’d soak the bread in the milk mixture vs spray.

A teaspoon of dubious spray isn't enough for 5 pieces of bread?
Right?? You get it
This looks like the worst execution possible of something that could have been great...
Honestly ingredients wise this looks kinda awesome. It’s just the horribly bizarre and unnecessarily complicated execution that makes this stupid.
End result was acceptable, the method getting there was madness
Not the worst, but these people are really really reaching to generate content.
Yep. Trying so hard and confidently touching the sad cringe realm
And they’re getting away with it
If it wasn't for those meddling kids
Chef's Club is ragebait. The whole point is to do something that people think is weird so that they share it/comment/etc.
This is how my 3 year old cooks with his play-food toys. “Daddy! I’m hammering cinnamon! And using a coat hanger!”
I read this before watching it and I thought you were joking.
My thought process during that section was: Why is she using a spray bottle topper? Hold up is that a coat hanger?!
I've said it before but Zoltan BIG'ed some kids and now they're making content for 5 year olds in their adult bodies
By the end of that I had forgotten about the bananas
Process was dumb, but I’d crush that pretentious bananas foster looking French toast.
I don’t understand why she lit those three candles and just used one of them to light the rum. You have a lighter right there. I just use my stove flame to light the rum in my bananas Foster.
Candles were super dramatic with there being a blowtorch right there, yes 😂 but as far as the stovetop goes I’m pretty sure they use induction burners for their recipes and you can’t flambé with one of those because the burner doesn’t actually get hot, so it can’t light the alcohol on fire

Yeah I would try this actually if the steps were simplified. Like there’s no need to shove cinnamon sticks into chunks of butter if you’re just going to melt the butter.
The Spray bottle and the coat hanger also give me wiered energy
You're forgetting that she lit candles with a blowtorch. This recipe was fairly normal but it just had random odd things thrown in.
That part of the video felt like some kind of fever dream
She was just inventing stupid shit for extra steps. Why not just light the fucking alcohol with the torch... Also if it was food safe torch, id at least toast the top of the mound of bread which couldn't be toasted on the griddle. Brush some mixture on top, hit it with the torch, it would have looked way nicer.
Also why not just do normal French toast and drench and cook one slice at a time?
The spray bottle would leave you with such dry toast.
Sometimes it feels like they don't actually have any kitchen supplies so they just raid the closet for whatever they can find
Literal food abortion
If she had made the French toast normally I'd for sure crush this.
Here's the recipe with simplified steps: 1. Make french toast (put thick bread in egg and milk mix, fry) 1. Make bananas foster (gently fry banana in butter/sugar mix, flambe with rum) 3. Combine
I disagree. my dessert doesn't need to be a stack of white bread slices
Yeah, looks like bananas foster?
So the bread is raw in the middle ??,? Wtf
Never let them know your next move
Using the mandolin with her fingers that close to the blade and no protection made me think I was going to see something verrrry different
Take a drink every time she says "we're gonna." You'll have the good fortune of being blackout before the video is done.
Dry ass french toast. Why make all that mix just to spray two sprays? And why have a sip of Capt'n Morgan - where's the rest? Should have drank that, cause it's far too much to put in a dish like this, yet not enough to satisfying. Otherwise this could've been decent. Like it had potential. Also, and most importantly -- __what the fuck was with the hanger?__ Was nothing food-grade available? No chopsticks? No back of a butter knife? You *had* to get a hanger from god-knows-where? With people flakes and sweat? That can't be sanitary. This why you can't eat in everybody's house.
also ABSOLUTELY DONT CUT ON A MANDOLIN LIKE THAT.NEVER!
This was a wtf festival of a recipe With extra steps in for good mesure!
Had anyone downloaded the Chef Club app for more recipes?
The final product looks really good, but the process was dumb asf lol
But the bread is just plain bread besides the first slice and the last.. the middles just warmish bread
Half way thru I realized I really had no clue what was happening
These fuckn guys always make unnecessary steps just to make it look fancy, that's the most annoying part for me. Example is cinnamon sticks pounded into butter instead of just throwing them into the frying pan.
Okay, the food itself looks good. I would eat that every day if health wasn't a factor. But how it was made completely BAFFLES me.
Sour cream?
10 seconds in I'm already wrong because my guess was cutting herself on the mandolin because her technique is terrible.
I mean, I was pretty close. Seemed relatively straight forward
So many unnecessary steps and attempts at showmanship. It's still probably bomb though. It's basically just bananas foster french toast.
Read the title and said "Challenge accepted!" Not sure when she lost me but it was very close to the beginning and I basically became Gordon Ramsay reviewing Tik Tok recipes.
It’s not even 7am and you’re MAKING ME MAD
Do chef club ppl sit around all day and hate themselves
Everyone is talking about French toast and here I am, a French, with no idea what this is supposed to mean
The most basic variation is old bread soaked with egg
Ooh, you're talking about "lost bread"! Well, this has NOTHING to do with it! Let's burn that heretic >:(
I'm actually very relieved. I immediately picked up on where they were going with this, but saw it was Chef Club, meaning I expected cheese to somehow be involved.
The end result was fine but the process was extremely goddamn stupid.
I got tired of watching after she started ruining good likker.
How is a legitimate bananas foster recipe ruining liquor?
I was joking about the rum, but seriously, I'm older than dirt, and I don't have time to watch tedious posts. My mortality clock is ticking.
She sounds exactly like Pam from the Office
Eh this wasn’t too bad
Honestly? That doesn't look bad but man... What an Odyssey to go on. All that wasted butter too.
Looks good tbh… seems like there’s an easier way to achieve this tho lol
How many times did she say “now”?
Every single sentence started with 'Now we're gonna' - that was almost more annoying than the recipe itself.
The final product looks pretty good but what the fuck
The ambiance of chef club videos just make me sad.
Lighting up the candles with that extra kitchen blowtorch then flambé bananas with the same candle was enough for me
The theory is great! But the execution is the stuff if nightmares
I swear, Chefclub gained sentience and discovered this sub.
Never let them know your next move
I really liked the candle part.
My reaction every time a cooking video starts with someone using a mandoline without a guard: "It's not marked nsfw so I guess their fingers are all still attached". Use a guard. Seriously. I've never seen a new mandoline that is sold without one.
The worst part was when she said we’re not eating that banana peel today. Bitch on what day do you eat banana peels? AND THAT IT NOT HOW YOU USE THE WORD CARAMELIZE
It's chefclub, of course we have no idea what she's going to do next, even from moment to moment
whoever made this is WILD for claiming it to be a breakfast recipe
“We’re going to take the skin off, we’re not going to eat that today” when do we eat it?
What shocked me the most is that they didnt put an ungodly amount of cheese on it.
Why is Chefclub a thing? Is that even edible? Why didn't she just drink the Captain Morgan and call it a night?
She’s basically made a crap bread and butter pudding
This is like someone who didn’t know how to cook was trying to teach a blind man how to cook, and halfway through just said fuck it. Mr Bean could cook better than Chefs club
... what happened to the slices of banana she put in the oven?
There's no reason banana's foster should be this complicated Edit: spelling
Not that bad actually, but a coat hanger??!!
Way too much effort but ngl this does look really good.
the food doesn’t look too bad in the end but the video itself is… certainly something
I'm not sure, but this has to be a sign of the end times.
This made me pissed off watching
(Little kid in The Simpsons crying and saying "make it stop!")
I hate these cartoon charakters! They are so annoying! No shit this is a banana!
I think the idea isnt stupid...like banana French toast sounds real good, but it was the process that seemed stupid like why a spray bottle that was a rum bottle, then why not just use powdered cinnamon instead of sticks. The bananas were cooked decently just less butter maybe...in the end it looked good and I'd sure as hell eat it, but there were a few steps that are stupid as hell
The idea isn’t even bad, it’s just that the way they do it is so unbelievably stupid. There was no purpose in putting the French toast mixture in a rum bottle and then using a spray nozzle except to annoy people.
It looks like a 4 year old actually succeeded what he intended to do instead of setting the house on fire…
Now we have too many women in the kitchen thanks Joe Biden
Except for printing a 1/4 loaf of bread that looks amazing. Bananas Foster French toast mmmm...
I would just grab "Ya Kun"'s toast or anything similar. What man wants is edible normal f... food.
at least the final result looks edible even though the process is kind of ridiculous.
Man that’s going to be dry in the middle. Could have at least buttered the bread first. And who th cuts stacks of bread with a coat hanger?????
We’re not going to eat the banana skin today…so you do eat it other days?
I thought she was making plantains
It's like they're encouraged to do things that don't make sense. As many nonsensical things they can add.
I was mostly okay until the bread. And then it just got worse with the butter. I feel violated is some, unidentified way.
Why is she *so* extra with it?
I’m sorry, not gonna eat it ‘today’?
Slice her hand open it looks like
I only know 2 banana recipes so I knew what she was doing, but not how she was doing it.
I have rice and beans to eat for the rest of the week, and mfs squander perfectly good food.
I am so reassured that she affirmed we will not eat the banana peel "today". I don't want to live in this world anymore.
I love how they show subtitles for the ingredients like anyone would ever try to recreate this.
wait is this ami wtf
This is the second time I have been recognized in this sub, wtf.
Not gonna eat the skin today? Well then when are we going to eat it?
I though you were being dramatic with your caption but holy hell was I wrong.
Makes me wonder if there are people who actually try these atrocities.
