In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Preheat a large 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 fully coated but not overly saturated.
Cook the bread slices on the prepared skillet or griddle for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Work in batches, adding more butter as necessary.
While the French toast is cooking, prepare the whipped cream. In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar together with a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Wash and hull the strawberries. Slice them into halves or quarters depending on their size.
To assemble, place two slices of French toast on each plate. Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream and a handful of fresh strawberries.
Drizzle with maple syrup and serve immediately.
