YUMMO! French toast CAN be ridiculously bad for you…super thick white bread with lots of butter and syrup…not my french toast! I’ve replaced butter and syrup with a pumpkin cream cheese frosting–so you still get a lot of flavor without a ton of extra sugar or fat. I hope you enjoy this yummy and HEALTHY french toast recipe!
