Stuffed French Toast
Fall is almost here!! I am so excited…kind of…
Fall is my favorite time of the year, unfortunately I don’t get to see it in the always-green-always-hot-Florida. It will be 90s until December and trees are always either bright green or dull green. Yesterday, it was 105 and I wanted to run away!
At least I still get all the great fall holidays and delicious fall food. I do miss the beautiful fall colors, and smells, and weather. Would you believe that I haven’t seen “fall” or snow in 15 years?! (Ah…I hate FL.) Good news is that I will actually get to see some gorgeous fall weather and nature this October. I will definitely take lots and lots of pictures to share with you. It’s promising to be amazing few days!
A couple of weeks ago, I asked my Facebook followers if they were ready to see fall recipes and I was surprised at the overwhelming response. Nearly everyone is ready for pumpkin and apple treats! Well, if you are all ready, you know I’m ready!
While we wait for fall season to come, let’s enjoy this delicious apple pie breakfast! Obviously, it’s not Apple Pie for breakfast but it’s a good excuse to have an apple pie for breakfast.
I’m so happy about how this French Toast turned out! The entire time I was eating it, all I could say was “oh…my…gawd!” It is so easy to make and tastes incredible! Saturday morning breakfast that the entire family will love. It would also be perfect as Thanksgiving breakfast!
