Peach and Raspberry French Toast

Ingredients

• Butter (2 tablespoons, divided)
• Maple syrup (to taste, for serving)
• Raspberries (1 cup, fresh)
• Peaches (2, sliced)
• Cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
• Vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)
• Milk (1/2 cup)
• Eggs (3 large)
• Bread slices (6 slices, preferably thick-cut)

Instructions

1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
2. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are fully soaked but not overly saturated.
3. Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
4. Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Adjust the heat as necessary to prevent burning.
5. Once cooked, remove the French toast from the skillet and keep warm on a plate covered with a kitchen towel.
6. In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
7. Add the sliced peaches and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.
8. Gently fold in the raspberries and cook for an additional minute until warm.
9. To serve, place the French toast on plates and top with the warm peach and raspberry mixture.
10. Drizzle generously with maple syrup and enjoy a taste of summer with every bite!
