French Toast with Homemade Strawberry Jam
I absolutely love french toast. My mom used to make it quite regularly when we were kids. I prefer to cook the bread in a greased pan instead of dipping it in oil. Out of laziness surely (🙈) but also because french toast still tastes good if you cook it in a greased pan. In this recipe, you also get to make your own strawberry “jam” which is cool. Hope you like it 🙂
