Plan ahead this Mother’s Day and whip up Mom a batch of this scrumptious Challah French Toast the night before! Simply pop it in the oven on Sunday and breakfast is ready in no time. The secret ingredient in this dish is the combination of cinnamon stick and French vanilla teas from Bigelow Tea. That’s right, tea! Just steep the tea and add to the traditional custard mixture. The flavorful teas take this dish to a whole new level, and it’s easy too. It serves up to 8 people, so hopefully Mom will share.
