Ingredients
  

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

2 large eggs

½ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon cinnamon

Pinch of salt

1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)

Maple syrup, for serving

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

Optional: powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.

    Coat the Bread: Dip each slice of zucchini bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side so that the bread absorbs some of the batter.

      Heat the Pan: In a skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat until it’s sizzling but not browned.

        Cook the Bread: Place the soaked zucchini bread slices onto the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.

          Serve: Once cooked, remove the slices from the skillet and serve immediately topped with maple syrup, fresh berries, and a dusting of powdered sugar, if desired.

            Enjoy! Indulge in your unique twist on breakfast or brunch with this delightful Zucchini Bread French Toast!
