Instructions

Prepare Custard: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Cook French Toast: Heat a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Dip bread slices into the custard, cook on the skillet until golden brown on each side.
Serve: Dust with powdered sugar, drizzle with maple syrup, and top with fresh berries if desired.

Notes

Stale bread works best for French toast to prevent sogginess.
For a twist, add orange zest or a splash of liqueur like Grand Marnier to the custard.
