Golden French Toast with Berries and Maple Syrup

Preheat the Griddle:

• Plug in the griddle of your choice and preheat to medium heat (about 350°F).

Prepare the Batter:

• In a shallow bowl or dish, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.

Soak the Bread:

• Dip each slice of brioche into the batter, ensuring both sides are evenly coated but not soggy.

Cook the French Toast:

• Grease the griddle with butter, letting it melt evenly.

• Place the coated bread slices onto the hot griddle and cook for 3–4 minutes per side or until golden brown and slightly crispy.

Serve:

• Plate the French toast and top with fresh berries, a drizzle of maple syrup, and a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream.

• Garnish with lemon slices for a pop of freshness.
