What a cute way to serve French toast!
This is a recipe that my son and I really enjoy. It’s easy to make, tastes delicious, and is so fun to eat! Just another of your recipe’s that’s a big hit…thank you 🙂
These were a HUGE hit with my 3 year old daughter! She even helped assemble them. We used regular sliced bread because that’s what we had on hand and it actually worked out just fine for us. I just cut the bread into smaller pieces after cooking the slices whole. Thicker bread would probably be even better though. Thanks for the great idea!
Probably 4 or 5, but sliced bread will probably be too thin. Let me know how it works out!
hmmm…I bought potato bread, sliced. I am trying to figure out how many slices I will need for this recipe.
I made french toast for dinner last Saturday. We all loved it. My recipe has a little vanilla and a little cointreau and the kids love it too.
Pregger cravings are the best!
I could definitely go for a few of those skewers right now!
What a great idea… I can’t wait to try this.. The kids are going to love it… 🙂 🙂 Thank You…
Another fantastic idea, I can’t wait to try it!
It was really funny to see the kids expressions when I told them it was French Toast on a stick!
I LOVE this idea! Thank you for inspiring me today! What a pretty (and fancy) way to make-over breakfast!!
