French Toast Kabobs

Breakfast kabobs are a favorite at our house.  

The kids love these for a fun breakfast on the patio or in front of the fireplace in the middle of winter.  

We think they are a special treat no matter which fruit you choose to use.  

I am using strawberries, blackberries and bananas for a red white and blue treat.  

The board of ingredients:

• Texas Toast
• Milk
• Fruit
• Vanilla Extract
• Syrup
• Eggs
• Bulk Sausage 
• Sugar
• Skewers

Let's start by cutting up the bread.

Cut all the crusts off first.

{Don't toss the crusts into the trash, use them to make breadcrumbs.}

Finally, cut the bread into quarters.
You can do this step the night before to make your morning a bit easier.
Stale bread makes the best french toast.

Now for the sausage balls.
I love these things and so do the kids.
Start by putting the sausage into a bowl.

Use a mini ice cream scoop to make little meatballs.

Once all the balls are made, add a bit of water to a non stick pan and cook the balls over medium heat.
The water will help cook the meatballs by slightly steaming them.

Once the meat starts to caramelize, keep turning the balls.
You don't want burnt sausage balls.
Sausage will burn more quickly than most meats because the sausage contains sugar of some sort.
Sugar burns quickly so keep an eye on your pan.

Now we can make the custard for the french toast.
Add the eggs to a bowl and whisk them.

Add the milk.

Add the vanilla and sugar.
Whisk it all together.

Dip the bread pieces into the custard.

Coat both sides and get them out of the custard quickly.

Cook the french toast bites in a non stick pan over medium heat.
I am cooking the french toast with just a thin coat of non stick spray.
You could cook them in butter.

Cook the bites until they are golden brown.
These are beautiful.

Now for the fun part.
It's time to start building the kebobs.



I use two pieces of french toast together...you can do it however you want.

I LOVE making these.
They are already looking good.

All you need is a tiny drizzle of syrup.

This is really a fun breakfast for adults as well as kids.

Enjoy!
