In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
Preheat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are evenly soaked but not overly saturated. Gently shake off any excess liquid.
Place the soaked bread slices onto the skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Repeat with the remaining slices, adding the second tablespoon of butter as needed for cooking.
While the French toast is cooking, rinse the raspberries under cold water and pat them dry. Set aside.
Once the French toast is cooked, plate two slices per serving. Top each serving with a handful of fresh raspberries.
Lightly dust the French toast with powdered sugar using a fine mesh sieve for an elegant touch.
Drizzle warm maple syrup over the top and serve immediately. Enjoy!
