Loving Lemon French Toast

A ray of sunshine

This breakfast is so perfect for a lazy Saturday morning. It's super easy and can be whipped up in no time at all. The key is to not rush dipping the bread in the batter - you want it to soak up all the delicious eggy mixture.

This is both beautiful to behold and consume. You've got bright lemon, refreshing yoghurt and red strawberries - find me a better breakfast than that.

I know you are going to absolutely love it.
