PB&J Stuffed French Toast Skewers

Dairy free PB&J Stuffed French Toast Skewers, plus The Ultimate Brunch Dish Round Up

PB&J STUFFED French Toast Skewers. Oh my gosh.

You will now never have to choose between PB&J and French Toast again. Not sure how many of you actually were ever in a position but, you get what I’m saying, right?

These PB&J Stuffed French Toast Skewers are dairy free and oozing with creamy peanut butter and strawberry jelly in each bite. Plus with the addition of fresh berries and sliced bananas, it is the ultimate breakfast/brunch/lunch recipe to enjoy for brunch at home.

Speaking of brunch, did you know that it is one of my biggest pet peeves? The whole concept of brunch makes me cringe. I love breakfast and don’t want anyone taking that meal away from me. Then there’s also the whole “brunch at 11am” deal that really throws me off. I am up around 7am everyday. The chances of me waiting that long to eat breakfast is absolutely not happening.

But the average 20-something year old living in NYC thrives over the idea of brunch. Brunch outside, bottomless brunch, all you can eat brunch, and I’m over here like “let’s meet for breakfast or lunch? I wouldn’t feel right having a blog post that has the “ultimate brunch round up” and not give my actual opinion about brunching. Of course I recognize most are not like me and that’s why I am still SO excited to share these 5 other delicious brunch ideas with you. If you’re like me, call it a breakfast or lunch party and go to town on these recipes because they are seriously drool-worthy and will satisfy anyone’s tastebuds.

You’ll find 6 total recipes by both myself and some of my fellow blogging gals in this blog post for the most perfect brunch.
