Light & Airy French Toast - Yum Yum!

Waffles, pancake, french toast & a cheese danish — sounds delish right? Or maybe your vomitting in your mouth from heavy, carb overload?  That’s how I usually feel about breakfast food so I have to be in the mood to handle it.  BUT this, ladies and gents, will have you craving breakfast every Saturday.French Toast with Berries and Lemon

  • 1 TBL of buttermilk
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract

  • 4 strawberries, quartered
  • 1/2 tsp agave nectar

Making it delish

  1. Pre-heat skillet or griddle to 300 degrees (med-high)
  2. Combine berries, agave nectar & the juice of 1/2 a lemon, then set aside
  3. Whisk eggs, buttermilk, cinnamon & vanilla extract
  4. Butter skillet
