Bob Loves Thomas' Cinnamon Swirl Raisin Bread. When he makes toast with it, I drool worse than our 80-pound Beau.
I live on a strict diet that keeps my IBS symptoms somewhat under control. Also, I don't eat sugar, that means I can't have any of his toast.
My desire to eat his bread, started my brain thinking about how I could have my cinnamon bread and eat it too.
I considered what is in Bob's Bread and What i can eat that will not harm me
Voila!
2 slices fresh baked French bread, bakery style, no additives.
Sprinkle bread with a LOT of cinnamon
Mix one spoon peanut butter, one spoon PURE maple syrup (you might want to rob a bank before shopping for it) 1/2 box of Rasins.
Stir Well, smear on bread and pop in toaster oven.
Yes, the top is dark. I love it that way. I put the Ninja on HI Air Broil and stand and watch because it toasts in 2 minutes.
It leaves the bottom soft, the peanut butter toasted and crisp.
If you don't like burned bread, use lower heat and less time.
Below is a pictorial list of what I use for mine. I forgot to add the cinnamon
This can also be done with bakery Sourdough Bread. I also use the Sour Dough to make both of us French toast, dip in egg and fry using Olive Oil Spray and use the syrup.
PEEEE SSSSS the egg on the plate is Beau's 36 second microwave egg. He gets half for breakfast and half for lunch because he eats when we eat. If we eat something he can have, he gets tidbits of that.
I was told Fat is the worst thing for IBS, if Beau eats fat of any kind, he gets up the next morning and throws up, AT 3 am.... No Fat for the Dog and only a little for me.
The natural fat in the peanuts is ok IF eaten in small amounts. NOT by the giant spoonful.
Joining Brian for Thankful Thursday, I am thankful I found a way to make my own cinnamon bread, thankful that I have the money to buy the ingredients and that Cananda is still able to send us syrup.

This is an interesting recipe, what with both peanut butter and maple syrup! I like Bob's bread in the Cinnamon Swirl flavor, and also the Brown Sugar flavor. No, wait, mine is Pepperidge Farm. I may try yours! The Pioneer Woman has a similar recipe that I made awhile ago.
I like your idea a lot!!! and we do the same, if we eat the dogs get something too, then we have more peace in the kitchen ;O)
Your way of making what Bob enjoys for breakfast without giving you digestion problems sounds great. I like the ingredients you use except for peanut butter. It's nearly breakfast time here and your blog post is making me feel hungry. Toast and marmalade every breakfast time here as we can eat bread products without any issues. Hope all is well and the roof is coming on ok.

Very creative - and sounds yum! YAM xx
I'll have some too, please. But sans peanut butter.
Hello,
I would love to try both Bob's and your version of the Cinnamon bread, YUM.
I am glad you found a way less sugar and better for your IBS. Take care, enjoy your day!
Ha on the 'giant spoonful' .... looking at me, are you?
I can't recall ever having cinnamon toast, but this looks SO good! I'd have to locate and destroy the raisins first, but still. Props for having discovered something you enjoy, that loves your tummy back
I love cinnamon toast but I can't eat maple syrup or honey either. I sprinkle cinnamon and truvia on a piece of bread and toast. Yummy!
WEll done MS...that is the thing about what we eat. Best not to deprive ourselves but to figure out an alternative!!
YOU did it.
BTW you are very observant in the wee hours.
Thanks for catching sit when it should have been seat.
Hugs Cecilia
Good for you to figure out some substitutes for the cinnamon toast thingy.
I do love that toast but the carbs just put the pounds back on me. Since being sick my weight has been on a yo yo trip. No fun for sure.
Love sourdough bread the very best. It makes wonderful grilled cheese sandwiches too.
No fair...
Now I am hungry for BREAD.

Glad to read about your work-around, Sandra, and yes I am thankful for realy maple syrup and peanut butter, which thankfully we enjoy as well!
Where there's a will, you WILL make a way! Good for you! I am going now to catch up on all I have missed in your life. I have not felt like visiting much lately but I am missing you. Thank you for being my friend. I've had Internet problems this evening so I hope I get to read at least a few days of your posts.....Love you, Sandra!
That sounds so good! And satisfying. I haven’t had bread in a week and I do miss it.
I love your creative mind! And I'm glad your idea worked.
It sounds pretty delicious. Glad you found a way to enjoy it too!
