Finland Rich Knights are delicious little french toast treats with whipped cream and a berry topping. In Finland the topping would likely be loganberry or cloudberries. If you don’t put any topping , they are known as poor knights. Served with a robust cup of coffee, it was a lovely ending to our Finnish meal. It would be great for breakfast too!
