Maple French Toast Recipe
This Maple French Toast recipe is perfect for an easy weekend breakfast. The maple flavoring makes this french toast a special treat!
Sometimes, I just get in the mood for a fancy breakfast. I suppose there are different levels of “fancy” for different people, but anything more intensive than cereal or yogurt counts as a fancy breakfast to me.
And, you know, adding maple flavoring to just about anything makes it pretty special, so I did just that.
I had a loaf of French bread leftover from the French bread pizza I made the other night and all of the other ingredients were in the house as well, which also made this a fast and easy breakfast (but still fancy).
I tried it both with and without syrup and both ways are entirely delicious.
The verdict:
I will definitely be adding this to my favorite breakfast recipes.

Hi Becky . . . Love these recipes. Made the cauliflower soup ? today and had 2 bowls for dinner. My problem is not knowing how much to eat of a good thing. For instance, the French toast. . . How many pieces as the recipe calls for 8 sices of ? bread. Not that I couldn’t enjoy all 8 pieces ?. Just wondering your advice on this.
Until the nets are full, Patty
Hi Patty. Thank you! I’m so glad you like the recipes! Servings are such a hard thing and I really think appropriate serving sizes vary person to person. I know that sweet breakfasts like this won’t keep me full unless I have some protein along with it, so I would be satisfied with one slice (or maybe two if I was really hungry) along with a scrambled egg or some Greek yogurt and fruit. I wouldn’t recommend eating only french toast for your meal because then you might need all 8 pieces to feel full!
I hadn’t had french toast in a long time, but I recently rediscovered my love for it, too! And my love of maple runs deep, so that was a match made in heaven!
I haven’t been a big fan of pumpkin, but pumpkin french toast actually sounds good! I may need to try that one myself!
I have a new found love for french toast, so your recipe pulled me in! I don’t make french toast very often, but I might have to start… I recently tried pumpkin french toast, I may have to try and figure that one out!
Yummm! I love French Toast! One time I made Zach French Toast out of Great Harvest Cinnamon Swirl Bread and it was to dye for!!! We only got through a couple pieces, it was dense. Great photos, you’re making me hungry!!
