Confession: Every time my family visits Walt Disney World, a character dining experience we simply cannot miss is breakfast at the Garden Grill located in the Land Pavilion at EPCOT.
Since it’s going to be a while since our (and probably your) next visit to Walt Disney World, we thought we’d bring the parks to you by sharing the awesome recipe for one of our favourite Garden Grill treats – the exquisite Sticky Bun Bake.
This signature treat is ooey-gooey and oh so delightful. Follow the steps below for the ultimate indulgence.
