PBJ French Toast
Love peanut butter and jelly on toast? This is the ultimate PB&J upgrade! We love to indulge our sweet tooth from time to time, and you should too. Even though this sweet vegan recipe is just the tiniest bit naughty, it tastes unbelievable and will impress even the food-iest of breakfast guests. Get creative and top it with anything you like, and don't be afraid to play around with jam flavours and nut butters. A little bit naughty- but very nice dairy free breakfast idea!
