Oh, so yummy & very filling! Next time, I might add a little cinnamon to the egg mixture to make it a little more like French toast.

Yum! I will admit that I was a little skeptical when I saw this on the web and my little one wanted to try it. We did try it and loved it. I made it again over the weekend and added a very thin slice of cheddar cheese in the sandwich and oh my it was good. Thank you for submitting this recipe!

This is a great recipe! I also have made it with 1/2 tsp.-1 tsp. of maple flav. OR blk. walnut flav. added to the dipping mix for the sandwich. My granddaughters love it!

good alternative to syrup with french toast. As a desert I would prefer puff pastery. The filling is really good.
