1
Prepare the Candied Walnuts
In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and water. Stir until sugar dissolves. Add walnuts and cook until sugar crystallizes on the nuts, about 5-7 minutes. Spread on parchment paper to cool.
2
Make the Cinnamon Compound Butter
In a small bowl, mix softened butter with ground cinnamon until well combined. Set aside.
3
Prepare the Bourbon Maple Syrup
In a small saucepan, warm the maple syrup and stir in bourbon. Keep warm until serving.
4
Make the French Toast
In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides. Cook each slice in the skillet until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.
5
Serve
Plate the French toast, top with candied walnuts, a dusting of powdered sugar, and a dollop of cinnamon compound butter. Drizzle with bourbon maple syrup before serving.
