Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
• 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 0.25 cups chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
• 0.5 cups fresh berries (optional, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it is fully liquefied and bubbling gently.

Step 2

Add the brown sugar, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon to the melted butter. Stir continuously with a whisk or spoon until the sugar dissolves fully into the butter and a smooth mixture forms.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer (do not boil), and cook for 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together and thicken slightly.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. If using chopped pecans or walnuts, fold them into the mixture at this stage.

Step 5

Let the topping cool slightly. The consistency will thicken as it cools. Spoon the warm topping generously over freshly prepared French toast.

Step 6

For added presentation, garnish with fresh berries and a light dusting of powdered sugar. Serve immediately and enjoy!
