I thought I would post a recipes from Mollie Katzen's Honest Pretzels. My kids and I found this one the other day and are having a blast with it... Lots of healthy, fun stuff to make and eat together!
Here's her Gingerbread French Toast recipe:
Ingredients
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon ginger
1/4 teaspoon allspice
3 or 4 slices Italian or sourdough bread (or try it with the amazing Rudi's bread we've been stocking in the freezer!) You could also use challah bread, which would be decadent; the folks at artisan bread in five minutes a day have a fantastic challah bread recipe (which I make for the store when I'm not so pregnant!)
Optional toppings:
* Real maple syrup (we get ours from Randy Grippin's Mountain Winds Farm in Berne - it is, without question, the best maple syrup I've ever had!)
* Applesauce
* Sliced peaches or strawberries
* Powdered sugar
Mix eggs, milk, and the spices together, whisking until the batter is all one color. Dip each slice of bread into the batter, then then stack them on a plate. Heat up a skillet on medium heat. Place the wet bread onto the buttered skillet and cook till it is browned; flip the bread over and cook the other side.
Serve hot, either plan or with one of the toppings.

Drop by on Sunday, too - we have an impromptu gathering of coffee lovers who join us in the afternoon and we often make them some special treats. And we have a cupcake maker, with which, as you know, all things are possible!
