A toast to breakfast and simple Sunday mornings! This French toast recipe is deliciously simple and packed with local ingredients. We suggest adding in season berries in the spring or berry jam that preserves the peak season flavor the rest of the year. You will need a shallow dish for dipping the sourdough in the egg mixture and a whisk to mix up your egg mixture. You will also need a frying pan to fry up this exquisite breakfast dish. This recipe serves 2 people, but can easily be scaled up for a brunch party.

Here is how to make this recipe with purpose-fueled food that’s better for the prosperity of our planet and people.
