I soaked this overnight and served it topped with your carmalized oranges. Yummy

This is a very easy and healthy breakfast. I always use the whole-wheat raisin bread for this; it tastes nearly the same but is much better for you. Instead of serving this with maple syrup, I mix equal parts frozen berries and vanilla yogurt in my blender. TIP: Whenever a recipe calls for ground nutmeg, take the time to grind your own instead;the taste (and fantastic smell) just does not compare to a jar of ground nutmeg.

Thanks for a quick, simple, healthy breakfast idea. I used Sara Lee cinnamon raisin bread and do agree a thicker bread would have been better. I will search out our local bakery for an unsliced loaf next time. The spice flavor was subtle but quite nice.

I think this recipe has some real potential! I used a low carb blueberry yogurt & didn't use any salt. I just used my regluar Sara Lee whole wheat bread. I cooked it on my nonstick griddle at 350 but had some problems in knowing exactly when to turn the bread over! I timed it at around 2 min but next time will let it cook at at least 3-4 min. I like my french toast brown & toasty & as crisp as possible so I will play with the cooking times. I do think different flavor yogurts will work fine, which is always a plus. This is a keeper; thanks for sharing :-).

I made this today for breakfast and Isaiah and I both enjoyed it. I like the fact that its healthy! I will definitely increase the spices next time though. (I halved the recipe for 1.5 servings) Other than that, very good:)
