It’s only fitting that my last recipe of the year is this Cinnamon Sugar Waffle French Toast Bake/
2020 has been full of ups and downs and a whole lot of baking at home using gluten-free and grain-free flours. In both the hard times and the good times, I find such solace and passion in sharing my recipes and my life and everything in between and I hope me doing so can bring the same sense of comfort to you. This paleo Cinnamon Sugar Waffle French Toast Bake is like a warm, comforting hug, something we could all use going into the new year.
It tastes like a combination between a cinnamon roll and monkey bread and those cinnamon sugar pretzels you’d get at the mall (if you know, you know). It’s a winner and the perfect thing to make for New Years Day!
