Step 2:

Mix eggs, vanilla and cream together. Dip your bread in egg mixture so both sides are covered quickly. Place onto hot griddle with melted butter. One to two minutes browning on each side. After bread is brown on each side I pour a small amount of real maple syrup on french toast. Flip piece of bread over and place a small amount on other side of bread and flip over until caramelized, one to two minutes.

Step 3:

Place three pieces on plate, garnish with whip cream, fresh mint and strawberries.

You must serve this dish quickly or your whip cream will melt.
This french toast is like eating a grilled cinnamon bun!
