From the author: It’s amazing how changing a couple of ingredients in a traditional recipe can revolutionize it. This take on french toast, adapted from a favorite brunch book, has become our new breakfast standard. You may never make it the same way again. Fair warning. This is good stuff. I mean who doesn’t love french toast? It’s sweet, buttery and so comforting! I would say it’s pretty up there on the list with pancakes when it comes to world favorite weekend breakfast, right? Let’s get right to it then.

French Toast: Quick & Budget-friendly

Apart from how amazingly delicious this recipe is, the best part is it couldn’t be easier and quicker! Just mix your ingredients in a bowl, soak your bread and cook them in the pan. Sprinkle some powdered sugar on top and enjoy. Easy peasy!

This recipe is also super budget-friendly! You can rescue any old bread you were ready to throw away and turn it into a fancy breakfast. Make it a habit. Every time you have old-ish bread lying around, it’s french toast day! Fun, right? Isn’t it amazing how you can create such a crowd-pleasing breakfast (or dessert!) from something you would have normally discarded? That’s the beauty of becoming budget-conscious. It makes you more creative, and you are able to appreciate the simplicity of foods and basic recipes.

Breakfast in Bed

Mother’s day? Father’s day? A special birthday? This recipe will be a great start to your celebration! Sometimes preparing a comforting meal can show love more than anything else could!

Somehow we always associate having french toast with breakfast in bed, and that’s the greatest gift! Eating french toast is cozy and snuggling in bed seems to fit together so well. Give the gift and let us know how it goes!
