When we were there last, we discovered this little creation: Glutino Cinnamon French Toast.

So, how was it?

On a scale of “1 to Awesome”, I give it a ‘Meh’.

Redeeming Qualities: Great packaging, ease of cooking, great cinnamon smell, nice size.

Not-So-Redeeming Qualities: Kind of chewy, not as full of flavour as the smell would lead you to believe, soaks up all the syrup but doesn’t get any moister with it.

We havent been converted. The best frech toast is made with GF Patisserie sandwich bread and the Double Dunk Technique. That, to me, is pure perfection. Will we buy these again? Most likely. I think they will be great to have in the freezer for the mornings when you just need something warm to eat before work. It will be a matter of convenience more then it will be a matter of goodness.

In our house, Saturday morning’s are all about breakfast. The day cannot, and will not, begin until breakfast is consumed. And not just any breakfast will do – cereal is for weekdays, and omelette’s are for the uncreative.

So what do you serve a Celiac who isn’t impressed with cereal or omelette’s? You serve them french toast. Oh yes I said it – FRENCH TOAST.

French toast made from gluten free bread, isn’t always as easy to make as you would think. GF bread is often heavy and sponge like. This usually translates into french toast that is cooked on the outside and soggy on the inside.

Not too worry, Fiance found a solution.

The first thing you need is well made GF bread. It needs to hold together and not be as dry as the desert. (I might suggest GF Patisseries sandwich bread.) Once you’ve chosen the best bread, you need to apply the ‘double dunk’  technique. Step one: GRAZE the bread over the egg mixture – do not submerge. Fry both sides. Step two: Remove from pan and dunk bread into egg mixture again. Repeat frying until cooked through.

I know that this process seems a little redundant. But it’s totally worth it! The double dunk technique is great because it prevents the bread from soaking up all the egg and turning into a soggy mess. SO WORTH IT!
