Ingredients

Panettone bread
4 slices, preferably day-old
Eggs
3 large
Milk
1 cup
Vanilla extract
1 teaspoon
Cinnamon
1 teaspoon
Butter
2 tablespoons
Maple syrup
for serving
Powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined and frothy.
  2. Take each slice of panettone and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are thoroughly coated. Allow the excess mixture to drip off.
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to foam but not brown.
  4. Carefully place the soaked panettone slices into the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
  5. Once cooked, transfer the French toast to a plate. Serve warm, topped with a generous drizzle of maple syrup and a light dusting of powdered sugar.
