Breakfast Inspiration!

English muffin-French toast-waffles

Leave it to NPR's "The Food Schmooze" to have me smacking my forehead wondering, why didn't I think of that?

Yesterday morning we were inspired by a simple "waffle" recipe.

Start with whole-grain English muffins, dip them in French toast batter — I prepared mine with eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, soy milk, orange juice and orange zest (next time I will add orange marmalade to the mixture) — then pop them into your waffle iron. Ingenious!

We cooked up an entire sleeve of English muffins and enjoyed some for breakfast with English bangers and soy lattes. The rest we cooled, put back into their paper sleeve and bag, and placed in the freezer. They'll be great crisped up in the toaster oven weekday mornings.
