This chilly fall weather makes me want all sorts of comfort food, like beautiful cardamom spiced French toast!

You guys, it’s starting to feel like fall! I absolutely love it: we visited our local cider mill a couple of weeks ago to sip cider, munch on donuts, and shop the latest locally sourced foods. And yesterday I had to wear a jacket to work for the first time in I-can’t-even-remember. It’s that time of the year! 🙂

And all I want to eat right now is tasty comfort food, of course, so I’m loving my cardamom spiced French toast today. I used a beautiful blend of spices in the batter for the French toast, comprised of cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg, and a pinch of salt to help bring out all those bold flavors. If possible, you should let the bread soak for a bit in the mixture before pan frying the French toast (like, I literally let it sit in a shallow bowl and soak up allllllllll of the egg mixture before cooking!). Then I made a quick honey cardamom butter for serving atop the French toast. I love the honey because its sweetness is a nice contrast to all the bold spice flavors in the batter. Serve with your favorite maple syrup on top!
