It’s hard to pick my favorite recipe to make for Christmas – there are so many holiday treats to choose from. Cookies, cakes and other goodies make the holidays that much sweeter! Since this is the best time of the year to spend time with friends and family, make the most of it by gathering around the table with a tasty morning after-Christmas breakfast treat!
After the presents are unwrapped, everyone will get to enjoy a sweet and savory breakfast of Berry Good French Toast courtesy of the Bottger Manson of Old Town in Albuquerque, NM. Bringing everyone together one last time before the holidays end will make them a little sweeter for everyone!
