Mother’s Day is fast approaching, so I decided to do a Mother’s Day theme this week. Many Mother’s Days begin with a yummy breakfast for mom. Whether you are making breakfast for your own mother or being surprised yourself with breakfast in bed, today’s recipe for Waffled French Toast with Strawberry Butter would perfect to serve. It is a fun variation on french toast.
Instead of cooking french toast the usual way, this gets cooked in a waffle iron. It is all that you would expect french toast to taste like but it also gets those awesome little pockets like a waffle to hold butter and syrup. The other great thing about using the waffle iron is it cooks both sides of the french toast at the same time!
To make this even more yummy, I have included a recipe for strawberry butter. It add a nice pop of flavor. It also make a lot so you can freezer the leftovers for another time.
Tomorrow I will be sharing a couple of recipes for syrup and one of them was most excellent on this, so be sure to check it out tomorrow!
