Gingerbread French Toast

This Gingerbread French Toast is SO perfect for these cold winter months! Choose any type of bread you want - brioche, whole wheat, gluten-free, and top it off with powdered sugar, cranberries, pomegranate arils, maple syrup, or chopped nuts. This breakfast recipe is one of my holiday favorites and can easily be made dairy-free and gluten-free!
