Cinnamon French Toast is ideal for breakfast or brunch as it’s so easy and fast to make before your family heads out for a busy day. They can also be prepared by your children, with supervision of course, for a special breakfast to mom and dad on their birthday, for Mother’s Day or for Father’s day. Who does not like a sweet breakfast in bed made with love! The best gift of all!
A French toast recipe is always a family favourite as it gets the kids in the kitchen cooking with mom and dad! Kids can mix up the batter and dunk the bread in. Depending on the age of the children, an adult may have to be on hand to put it in the frying pan, so no one gets burned.
