Maple French Toast

Directions

1. 1
   First allow your sliced bread to sit at room temperature for approximately 1 hour to allow the surfaces to dry out.
2. 2
   In a wide bowl, beat your eggs with your maple syrup until the mixture is slightly thickened.
3. 3
   Beat in the milk, vanilla, nutmeg and salt.
4. 4
   Place your bread slices in the mixture and allow them to soak in the mixture for approximately 5 minutes until saturated well.
5. 5
   Next you will want to preheat your skillet over medium heat and add 2 Tablespoons of butter.
6. 6
   Once your butter has melted reduce your heat to medium-low and saute bread slices for about 5-6 minutes per side, making sure that you flip each slice over every 2 minutes or so to make sure that they brown evenly.

   You may have to cook in 2 batches if you use a smaller skillet.

   Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, and place random berries around the plate for a nice look and tasty meal.
