Sweet & Delicious Breakfast!
Who doesn’t love a little something special for breakfast?! French toast sticks are a fun twist on our favorite French Toast that you can eat with your fingers. We like to make this from our classic Homemade Bread recipe to make sure the sticks are thick and fluffy and then dip them in Maple Syrup, Buttermilk Syrup or even Strawberry Sauce. Yes, we understand you can buy these frozen from the store, but we can promise you that you cannot beat this homemade version!
