French Toast
If you have been reading this blog for a while you would know that I am addicted to pancakes. In every way, shape and taste.
If I am guaranteed a fire, a pancake pan and some flour type ingredient then pancakes would definitely be a desert island requirement. Let’s not examine the logistics of that one too closely.
But I figure it is time for me to introduce you to another breakfast love – aka French toast or eggy bread.
It’s a weekend favourite (I am sad enough to plan the rest of my brunch recipes round this), full of sweet delicious vanilla’ie (new word) goodness and it just rocks. No need to say anymore.
Well apart from enjoy every mouthful.
Coconut pancakes with cardamom.

French Toast is one of my favourite indulgent breakfasts. We try to make it on a Sunday every couple of weeks.
That looks so good. I haven’t made or eaten eggy bread in years. Haven’t had pancakes in a while either – what’s going wrong?
Oh my this sounds totally amazing and is putting my marmalade on toast to shame!
I love French Toast but I haven’t had it for years – literally. Time to change that, Thanks Bintu. GG
I go through phases too GG as I am too busy eating other things but always come back to french toast.
I’m a French Toast fan too Bintu and with our own chickens and plenty of eggs, it’s often on the menu at weekends!
You lucky thing Karen with all those eggs.
This looks so tasty, I must try it for the family this weekend!
