Nutella-stuffed french toast: A breakfast for the gods

Preparing two semi-involved meals in a week probably doesn’t constitute a cooking frenzy for most of you, but for a guy like myself who rarely eats anything other than ramen noodles and peanut butter sandwiches, it’s a big deal.

That said, I don’t usually have too many exotic, mouth-watering recipes to share.  But my breakfast this morning was an exception to die for:  Nutella-stuffed french toast.

In case you’re not familiar with Nutella, it’s a chocolate hazelnut spread.  As a kid I used to make nutella and marshmallow creme sandwiches, and it was truly like dessert for lunch.  But Nutella-stuffed french toast far surpasses those old sandwiches in taste.

There is not a single health benefit to indulging in a few slices of Nutella-stuffed french toast.  But as soon as you taste an egg-battered, syrup-drenched, chocolate-infused morsel of this heavenly dish, you won’t even care.

Check out the recipe at the Nook and Pantry blog.  They say to use stale brioche, but I just used regular bread slices, and alongside an over-medium egg and some coffee, I had a glorious Sunday morning.

Enjoy!
