Stuffed French Toast

triple-layered, buttery golden crust, bursting with sweet flavors from vanilla & fresh fruit.

If your french toast isn't a towering stack, with cream spilling out the sides, it's gone all wrong. Here are FOUR variations of my favorite french toast: blackberry cream, cherry vanilla, cinnamon sugar, and date caramel. Each one decadent, fluffy, rich and oh so sweet. My little requests the cinnamon sugar one with bananas on the daily. I would love to know which one is your favorite (*Mine is definitely the date caramel one!). Drop us a comment at the bottom of this page. Enjoy, my loves.

4. Melt the blackberries down in a small saucepan with lemon juice, chia seeds, and jam, stirring often. You can also microwave them for 30-40 seconds, and then mash with a fork.

5. Gently fold melty berries into yogurt until blended. Slowly mix in protein powder, if using.

6. Add your first slice of french toast to a plate, cover with 1/3 of the blackberry cream, layer the next slice of toast, add more cream. Add final slice, and cover with the remaining cream. Sprinkle more berries and confectioner’s sugar on top. Enjoy!
