Breakfast really is the most important meal of the day. I love how versatile breakfast is. Especially around the holidays, breakfast gets made over in such fun and unique ways. The variety adds a little spice to the frantic days leading into the holiday season. We all love to wake up to a fun, tasty treat in the mornings. So, this holidays season, treat yourself and your loved ones to this amazing gingerbread spiced french toast. It’s easy to make…it’s delicious. And it’s completely gluten-free. Thanks to my friends at Rudi’s Gluten-Free Bakery, this recipe has been passed on to me to share with all of you.
Naturally…I had to make it and try it out. Guess what? Despite not being an avid fan of gingerbread…I fell in love with this French toast. I know you will too. Why not whip up a batch yourself for Christmas morning…or any morning!

As I said, I don’t even like anything gingerbread, and I absolutely scarfed these down like they were going out of style. Amazing flavor. The spices were just enough to compliment and not overpower the French toast. I dusted mine with powdered sugar and then drizzled with maple syrup. Yeah…it was an epic holiday breakfast.
