Since I gave my children whole grain bread and they liked it, everything involving bread in my family, including French toast, is now multigrain. We all eat better, healthier, with more fiber, and end up more satisfied. This delicious, earthy French toast is a new staple in my kitchen and all my family loves the recipe. Hope you like it!
