Ingredients

Make the egg mixture
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, white sugar, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until fully combined and slightly frothy.
Time: PT2M
Prepare the bread
If desired, cut off the crusts of the two bread slices. Set the slices aside.
Time: PT1M
Heat the pan
Place the frying pan over medium‑low heat and add the tablespoon of unsalted butter. Allow it to melt and foam but not brown.
Time: PT1M
Soak the bread
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides. Let each slice sit for a few seconds so it soaks up the liquid.

Cook the first side
Place the soaked bread slice in the hot pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until the underside is golden brown and set.
Time: PT2M
Flip and finish cooking
Using a spatula, gently flip the toast and cook the other side for another 2 minutes, until golden and the interior is cooked through.
Time: PT2M
Serve
Transfer the French toast to a plate, drizzle with pure maple syrup, and serve immediately.
