Blueberry French Toast Bake
This breakfast feels really celebratory and is sure to be a hit with adults and children alike, but is actually low in both sugar and fat. Any leftover blueberries can be frozen and used when serving the banana pancakes, or simply enjoyed with a bowl of low-fat yoghurt and a handful of a granola for another delicious, easy-win breakfast.
