6 eggs
1 cup of heavy cream
1 cup of sugar
1 tsp of cinnamon
2 cups of crushed corn flakes

Maple Syrup
Fresh strawberries, bananas blueberries, etc

Mix the eggs, sugar and cinnamon. Dip the bread in the egg mixture for 5 minutes. Remove the bread from the egg mixture and push both sides into the crushed corn flakes.
In a large skillet, melt a tablespoon or so of butter until bubbly and fry the Pain Perdu on each side until golden brown.

To serve, place on a plate and drizzle with dulce de leche, maple syrup and top with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. Cheers!
