Main Ingredients

Method

Preparing the French Toast

  1. 1

    Make the egg mixture

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

  2. 2

    Dip the bread

    Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated.

  3. 3

    Cook the French toast

    Place the dipped bread onto the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread slices.

Preparing the Toppings

  1. 4

    Whip the cream

    In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.

  2. 5

    Make the berry sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the fresh berries and sugar. Cook for about 5-7 minutes or until the berries have softened and released their juices. Remove from heat.

  3. 6

    Toast the walnuts

    In a dry skillet over medium heat, add the chopped walnuts. Toast for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant and golden brown.

Serving the French Toast

  1. 7

    Plate the French toast

    Stack the cooked French toast on serving plates. Top each serving with a generous dollop of whipped cream, a drizzle of berry sauce, a sprinkle of toasted walnuts, and a splash of maple syrup.
