Growing up every Sunday my father would make a HUGE breakfast feast for the family and all our friends. He would wake up at the crack of dawn and labour of love would begin. Back bacon, eggs cooked to order, greasy bacon, amazing home fries, pancakes, and the dish that kept everyone coming back for more…his French toast. And by everyone, I mean each week the breakfast group grew! Word spread quickly. This rendition of Dad’s French toast has a Heather twist to it…it’s fried in butter.
