Hi all!
Can I just tell you about the most ammaazing breakfast I had this morning. It felt so decadent for a Tuesday. It got my morning off on the right foot indeed. Cinnamon Bread French Toast.
I love French toast. It’s by far one of favorite breakfast foods. Growing up, my mom would make it for us as a treat on the weekends. For some reason, living on my own, I don’t think I’ve made it once. Crazy right!?!
I decided that today was a French toast kind of day. But this French toast was special..and oh so delicious.

(serves 2)
Ingredients
- Four pieces of whole wheat bread
- 3 eggs
- 1.5 tablespoon of
Earth Balancebutter - 1 tablespoon of cinnamon
- 1.5 tablespoon brown sugar
Directions:
Heat griddle and grease with butter or cooking spray. Beat eggs in a shallow bowl.
Dip each side of each toast into egg, as you normally would for French toast and place on griddle (I used a pan).
Meanwhile, combine remaining ingredients in small, microwaveable bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds, stir thoroughly.
Flip toast and pour sugar mixture on cooked top of two of the toasts.
Wait thirty seconds and then put un-sugared toasts on top of the sugared toasts. Plate and serve.
Something about the warm gooey center that had me. Just like a cinnamon roll!
Seriously, you need to make this now. Maybe even for dinner! ![]()
Other Swanky Scoop:
-Today at work, we celebrated a coworker’s birthday and (sadly) another coworker’s going away.
We ordered in Jason’s Deli cause we’re all obsessed with their nutty mixed up salad.
My old coworker came in to visit and made chocolate cookies. Maybe I shouldn’t have had such a decadent breakfast. ![]()
-Last chance to enter the Pure Alaska Salmon Company giveaway! I’ll be announcing the winner on Thursday. Yay!
Thanks for reading!

Mmm… your lazy girl French toast looks so yummy! I think I need to try that!
I use Earth Balance Buttery Spread! [This may sound weird but,] I think that Earth Balance taste more like butter than butter. I always use cinnamon in french toast. I also use a pure cinnamon infused maple syrup. It’s so good!
But my favorite decadent meal would probably be this Greek pita I make.
That has to be by far the most delicious looking french toast I have ever seen
Yum!
I am going to try that french toast for dinner tonight!
I have some lovely poppy seed bread that will be delicious as sticky french toast!
that french toast does look like the perfect way to start any day!
I’m a breakfast lover too. I’d probably go with Eggs Benedict (if I had to choose 1). I do love French Toast too, gooey center- yum.
The french toast looks awesome. I’m not so much a french toaster, but my husband is. My favorite decadent food to indulge in is cheesecake. I rarely have it. I’m up for plain old cheesecake. You don’t have to fancy it up for me with toppings or adding other flavors. YUMMY!
I’m a huge French Toast fan… unfortunately my boys like pancakes better, so I usually indulge their wishes on the weekends. Thinking if I gave this cinnamon roll version a try, I might make them converts!
I am now craving french toast like you would not believe. As soon as I get home this weekend I am going to have to make this!!
xo
I make a similar French Toast only I add milk and use less eggs. Definitely delicious! I’m all about breakfast so my favorite decadent meal would have to be banana nut pancakes with the expensive maple syrup. I want some now!
That french toast looks amazing! Simple, too! Love it! I am refusing to spend much time in the kitchen from this point forward, so this is perfect!
ha! I love how you crossed out the Earth Balance!! That french toast looks amazing. Cinnamon always make everything better!!
Haha! I know, I’m so bad! Gotta love the real stuff.
Cheese cake and wine! …last week in Croatia I has some truffle butter gnocchi that was amazing…but the day I die, I want cheesecake. Plain, maybe some fruit on the side…with a nice, big chewy RED
Butter gnocchi…yum!!
I have not had French toast in a really long time. I was never the biggest fan of it but that version looks really good! I can’t ever turn down chocolate chip cookies!!
that french toast looks delicious!
That french toast looks so good! I cannot wait to try this out, I have all the ingredients at home minus the brown sugar so I gotta get my butt to the store so I can try this out ASAP
You will love it! I made it again today!
OOOH…sometimes good, sugary french toast REALLY hits the spot, doesn’t it?? My favorite decadent meal? Probably my Mom’s Christmas dinner with all the trimmings!! So good…
Have a great day.
Oh my – this all looks amazing. You just gave me such a craving for french toast and cookies!
I’d say cupcakes are my most decadent indulgence
That just sounds amazing!
french toast and waffles are like mother’s freaking milk to me. I love them. I blog about them, I make them for dessert, I want to make a bra from them so they are always close to my heart. LOVE HTP’s recipe. (I use both butter and eb, so I can’t possibly choose, it would be like choosing which pair of shoes I like best.)
I haven’t had french toast in ages, although I have a recipe bookmarked that had goat cheese and nuts in the middle – sadly I had to throw out all our food because of a power outage – fingers crossed its back on by today – we are going on day 4 with no power.
Give me a cheese plate with artisan salami’s and crostini and I am a happy camper!
I just LOVE cheese plates!
I love the idea of lazy girl french toast! Looks perfect
I LOVE french toast myself!!
I LOVE French toast and I love ‘lazy’ recipes- this is perfection!
