Nutella Stuffed French Toast

 Man is this good.  I love the crunch from the cereal on the outside.  I use cinnamon toast crunch, but you can use captain crunch, fruity pebbles, or just about any crunchy cereal.  No need for syrup, I just added it for the picture.   You can make this a couple ways.  I prefer the rolled up version for the kids and maybe even me.  Easy recipe to double or more.  I figure about two slices of French toast per egg.
