Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Egg Mixture

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

  2. 2

    Dip the Bread

    Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip each slice of thick bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.

    Cook the French Toast

    Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Add more butter as needed for cooking the remaining slices.

    Serve

    Plate the French toast and top with fresh whipped cream, a drizzle of maple syrup, and seasonal berries. Serve warm.
