Cinnamon french toast with strawberries

Method

Hull the strawberries and cut them in half. Put in a medium bowl with orange juice and sugar. Stir to combine and set aside to macerate. Place eggs in a large, shallow bowl and beat lightly. Add milk and cinnamon and beat to combine. Soak both sides of the bread in the egg mix. Melt half the butter in a heavy-based wide pan over medium low heat. Add half the soaked bread and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden. Remove from pan and set aside on a large plate. Use an overturned plate to cover and keep warm. Heat remaining butter and cook the rest of the bread. Serve with the strawberries and a drizzle of maple syrup.
