Instructions
 

  • Prepare the French Toast:
  • In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  • Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter to coat the surface.
  • Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are soaked but not overly soggy.
  • Place the soaked bread onto the heated skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with all slices of bread.
  • Assemble the French Toast:
  • Once the French toast is cooked, stack the slices on a serving plate.
  • Top with fresh berries and dust with powdered sugar, if desired.
  • Serve:
  • Serve with maple syrup, whipped cream, or extra berries if preferred.

Notes

  • Bread Choice: Brioche or challah are great options because they are rich and soak up the custard mixture well.
  • Berries: You can use any fresh berries you like or mix in a combination of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries.
  • Add-ins: Add a sprinkle of chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the toaster or oven for a crisp texture.
