Blueberry, basil & old cheddar French toast
This very gourmet recipe definitely brings French toast to the next level, and I am pretty proud of it!
The flavour of blueberries, mixed with a hint of cheddar and the taste of French toast, make me feel like I’m walking on clouds with every bite.
Have fun trying it with different cheeses!
