Cosmic Charlie's Christmas Morning French Toast
<p>I host a large brunch, on Christmas mornings, at our house. One of the most popular dishes is my overnight french toast using Cosmic Charlie’s Sugaree (sugar/cinnamon)Bread! Feel free to leave the Grand Marnier out, leave it in or even sub a different flavor. This is so good served with slices of baked sausage and real maple syrup….</p>
