Honeymoon French Toast

1. 1

   In a large shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, the 1/4 cup of maple syrup, the vanilla and the cinnamon until the sugar is dissolved.

2. 2

   Soak the bread slices in the egg mixture, 1 slice at a time, for about 1 minute, then transfer to a tray or baking sheet; don't oversoak or the bread will fall apart.

3. 3

   Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in each of 2 large heavy skillets.

4. 4

   Add the bread to the skillets and cook over moderately low heat, turning once, until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side; if the pans are dry when you turn the toast, swirl in a little more butter.

5. 5

   Transfer the French toast to plates, dust with the confectioners' sugar and serve at once with the warm maple syrup.
