Peanut Butter and Blueberry French Toast

This savory comforting Peanut Butter and Blueberry French Toast is a fun treat for the weekend. It is healthy and satisfying!

I am a creature of habit when it comes to breakfast. Most days I enjoy a smoothie with a frozen banana, spinach, peanut butter, and chocolate Vega One. It gives me my daily vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, probiotics, greens, and protein. Not to mention, it is quick and easy.

Some days I want to have a leisurely breakfast with something sweet. Those are the days when I reach for Banana Pancakes or French toast. It was one of those days when I made this Peanut Butter and Blueberry French Toast.

I included peanut butter for a boost of protein so that I stay full longer, otherwise I crash a hour or two after eating French toast. I used blueberries and mashed them to give a fruity jam quality without the sugar of jam. Then I sweetened some blueberry juice with agave syrup for dipping my French toast sandwich in, and to give it a sweet note.

It is Northern Bakehouse millet chia bread. I highly recommend it.
