Gluten-Free French Toast by Wendy     Print this Recipe

Comments

This French Toast is gluten-free since it is made with Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread - delicious!  It incudes healthy omega-3 fats from flax seeds, antioxidant anthocyanins from blueberries, and a bit of natural sweetness from Fair Trade Honey!  Add a sprinkle of cinamon just before serving for a nutrient-packed punch that helps lower the impact of sugar on your blood glucose levels.
