Gingerbread French Toast: a traditional breakfast with a Christmas taste.
At our house Christmas, breakfast is always a feast! Christmas quiche, sunshine rings, fruit, and gingerbread french toast. I love making gingerbread french toast because they are small portions making you feel like you can eat a little and still have room for all of the other fabulous things.
These literally take 15 minutes to make from start to finish! Using one baguette I can use the entire recipe, but you can easily double it depending on the crowd. This will be a dish that everyone will love! It is like Christmas in a bite.
