How to Make the Best Triple Berry French Toast

1. Make egg mixture. In a small container or mixing bowl combine eggs, heavy cream, vanilla extract, sugar, cinnamon and salt. Whisk to combine.
2. Coat baguette slices. Lay slices of baguette in egg mixture and let sit for 2-3 minutes to soak it up, then flip and let sit another 2-3 minutes. Repeat until all bread is coated.
3. Toast. Heat a large griddle or skillet over medium-high heat. Melt butter, then add sliced bread and let cook undisturbed for 3 minutes per side. Once they're on the griddle, don't touch! If you want them to get that gorgeous brown colour, let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes before flipping. French toast perfection! Repeat with remaining bread.

How to Serve Mixed Berry French Toast

To serve, top french toast with a pat of butter and lots of fresh berries, which helps cut the sweetness of the maple syrup. Drizzle with maple syrup and serve immediately.
