Ingredients
  

4 slices of zucchini bread (either store-bought or homemade)

2 large eggs

½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy based on preference)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

A pinch of salt

1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for cooking)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries) for a vibrant garnish

Optional: powdered sugar for a sweet dusting

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter: In a medium mixing bowl, vigorously whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth, well-combined, and slightly frothy to ensure a creamy coating for the bread.

    Coat the Bread: Carefully dip each slice of zucchini bread into the egg mixture. Allow the bread to soak for a few seconds on each side, ensuring it absorbs enough batter to enhance its flavor without becoming overly soggy.

      Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or griddle, add the butter and melt it over medium heat. Heat until the butter is bubbling but not browned; this will create a perfect cooking surface for the French toast.

        Cook the Bread: Gently place the soaked zucchini bread slices onto the hot skillet. Cook for approximately 3-4 minutes per side, or until each slice is beautifully golden brown and cooked through. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

          Serve: Once cooked to perfection, remove the slices from the skillet and plate them immediately. Generously drizzle with warm maple syrup, top with a handful of fresh berries, and if desired, finish off with a light dusting of powdered sugar for added sweetness and elegance.

            Enjoy! Dive into this unique and flavorful twist on breakfast or brunch with your delightful Zucchini Bread French Toast! It’s perfect for a cozy morning or a special weekend treat.
