This was great! Different and, if you're making a dish for one person, you'll eat great breakfast/brunch/dessert for at least 2-3 days!

My family loved this, especially my husband who is very picky. I maked this dish for him 3 weeks in a row, because it's easy for him to take to work for his breakfast. I also maked it with peaches, which was very good too. I use all types of bread (they all came out good), but my hubby just like the regular sandwich bread. Thanks.. ;)

My kids LOVED this recipe! I did not have the french baguette on hand so I used stale, leftover Hawaiian rolls - worried at first, but it was delicious. Also, I forgot to cover this as the recipe called for, but it turned out fine anyway.
