I love french toast, it may be better than pancakes! I have made so many healthy pancake recipes that I decided it was time to try something different, french toast roll-ups! These babies have been going viral through Pinterest and other social media websites lately, but if course they are not healthy. My mission was to create the same lovely recipe, but clean it up a bit nutrition wise. The cinnamon-sugar is a key part in making this dish, so I added all natural unrefined cane sugar that I got from Karis Naturals! To make it even better, I added peanut butter and banana because who doesn’t love that combination?
