Simply the best French Toast ever.
For those of you who know the joys of babka in the morning, here's a new way for you to enjoy your favorite sweet breakfast treat. All you need are some pantry staples and your favorite babka of choice. I like to refer to the ladies who authored Joy of Cooking for standard recipes and I followed their standard French Toast recipe for this amazing creation.
Where do I find Babka?
You can make your own babka at home by following the recipe Not Your Bubbe's Babka. If you don't want to spend all day attempting to create your own incredible babka, you can do what I did this morning and grab a babka from my new favorite deli, Mekelburg's at their Babka Shop and have your very own babka by tomorrow morning.
Chocolate or Cinnamon Babka?
That is a VERY personal choice and I'll leave you to it.
