French toast is a guilty pleasure of mine for breakfast. It’s more of a dessert than a breakfast, but I guess the same can be said for pancakes after you drown them with syrup. This recipe was a childhood favorite of mine and brings back memories of a simpler time. A time when I didn’t have a beard or responsibility. In the comments, tell me about the foods that are reminiscent of your childhood.
