Maple Butter Syrup
Strawberry Compote
Whipped Cream
Method
Preparing French Toast
Make the Batter
In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon.
Soak the Bread
Dip each slice of white bread into the batter, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
Cook the French Toast
In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the soaked bread slices and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Repeat with remaining butter and bread.
Making Maple Butter Syrup
Combine Ingredients
In a saucepan, combine maple syrup and unsalted butter. Heat over low heat until the butter is melted and the mixture is warm.
Preparing Strawberry Compote
Cook Strawberries
In a small saucepan, combine fresh strawberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the strawberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
Making Whipped Cream
Whip the Cream
In a mixing bowl, combine heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip with a hand mixer until soft peaks form.
Serving
Plate the French Toast
Serve the French toast warm, drizzled with maple butter syrup, topped with strawberry compote, and finished with a dollop of whipped cream.
