This batch of decadence was my hubby’s request for Christmas morning breakfast. It was a recipe somebody shared on Facebook (and I’m sorry, I have no idea WHOSE the original recipe was!) that he asked me to convert to something we could both eat. Not a small order with the whole gluten AND dairy free restrictions. But I took it on and the results were, frankly, nothing short of spectacular. The whole family LOVED this. I don’t actually like normal French toast, but I really enjoyed this. We had it with some fresh sausage from the butcher shop and bacon (because that’s how we roll). This recipe is for a half batch (9×9 pan). If you’re feeding a crowd, double everything and use a 9×13.
