    Using frozen waffles to make french toast is a wonderful way to enjoy breakfast in a new way. Combining french toast flavors with buttery toaster waffles makes every bite worth savoring.

    Frozen waffle french toast is a blend of the two best breakfast foods in one convenient recipe. You're going to love making french toast with frozen waffles and may never go back to eating them plain again.

    Have you ever found yourself the proud owner of several boxes of frozen toaster waffles? Sales, deals, gifts, they just sort of accumulate in the freezer.

    Turning those forgotten, unwanted, or that abundant collections of waffles into french toast is truly amazing. Not only do you get great flavors, but you also get those syrup pockets. YUM!

    Why This Recipe Works

    1. It's frugal. This is a great way to use waffles if you're doing a no spend challenge or a clean out the pantry challenge (even if it is the freezer).
    2. It's unique. Save money on food by using what you already have on hand- uh, yes, please! Not only that, but it's so much fun and different. You may find yourself going out of your way to recreate it often.
    3. Two breakfast favorites in one. We LOVE waffles, and we love french toast, but combining the two means we get spiced cinnamon, buttery waffles, and perfectly toasted syrup pockets in every bite.

    Flip and cook the other side for another 2 minutes or until golden.

    The edges will look crisp and cooked, but the pockets may appear wetter. Any egg whites should appear white and not translucent.
