Welcome back to my Better Off The Menu series where I recreate your favorite takeout foods even better at home!
There’s a super popular bakery in Kneaders Bakery & Cafe, and their French toast is easily their most famous item. It has a full-on fan base and I totally get why. My family is obsessed with it, so I had to make a version at home.
And honestly, it hits all the same notes. Thick, soft slices of bread, a rich cinnamon flavor, and then the best part: warm caramel syrup, fresh whipped cream, and strawberries piled on top. It’s simple but so good!
