Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 Tbsp. butter
  • 2 Tbsp. honey
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar
  • 1 lb. of fresh strawberries, rinsed and sliced

  5. For the French toast, in a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk and vanilla.
  6. Cut each slice of bread into 3 pieces to make sticks.
  7. Dip bread into the mixture and allow it to soak for 5-10 seconds on each side.
  8. Over medium heat, melt butter in a large sauté pan.
  9. Place 6 pieces of bread (at a time) in the pan and cook until golden brown, approximately 2 minutes per side.
  10. Repeat with all the slices.
  11. Serve immediately with a dab of butter, maple syrup, strawberry sauce, whipped cream and powdered sugar.
