Ingredients

  • 4 slices sandwich bread
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
  • zest of 1 small lemon
  • 10 large blackberries
  • powdered sugar
  • maple syrup
  • cooking spray

Instructions

  • Crack eggs into a large bowl, preferably with a flat bottom (this will allow for easier dipping). Add the milk, vanilla, and cinnamon. Whisk with fork to combine.
  • Heat medium skillet over medium heat. When warm, coat lightly with cooking spray.
  • Dip a piece of bread into the liquid mixture. Turn over and make sure both sides are coated.
  • Place into the pan and cook each side until lightly browned, and then set aside. Repeat with the other three pieces.
  • Slice each piece of toast diagonally and arrange onto two places. Zest half of the lemon over one plate, and half over the other plate. Add 5 blackberries to each plate. Sift powdered sugar over the French toast, then add warm syrup as desired.
