Good morning bloggers! It's a lovely Saturday morning here in the states, and today, we are whipping up a delicious breakfast that your entire family will love! It's two of my favorite things: french toast and bananas. One word comes to mind when I think of this combination-- yum!
I loved mornings where my mother would serve my sisters and I wonderful plates of french toast. Now, you will have a recipe to share with your loved ones! So, grab your morning cup of java, and I'll meet you in the kitchen.
