Vanilla French Toast
We discovered this recipe in Mexico. We couldn't figure out what made this French toast so delicious until we learned the secret was vanilla - one of Mexico's most popular flavorings.
Since then, we've added a touch of vanilla to our waffle and pancake recipes. It makes them all very tasty.
