quick tip
This French toast is a highly adaptable recipe, increase or decrease the amount of Nutella or cream cheese according to your taste preference and with those two ingredients, it is almost guaranteed that you cannot go wrong. Just a note, an important note I would say, do not forget to add the pinch of salt - you will really taste the difference.
make it a fun breakfast/brunch you can cook with your little ones.
This is a pretty easy recipe that you can cook with your kids. If they are young, they can help with mixing and spreading the Nutella mix and you do the heavyweight function of actually using the stove. If they are young adults, you can let them make this on their own, of course, you always being there to guide and support them.
