Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 6 slices Thick sliced bread (brioche or Texas toast is ideal) Slightly stale bread works best.
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk Any kind works.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon Plus more for the coating.
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 tablespoon butter For greasing the pan.
Coating
  • 1/3 cup sugar Mixed with 1 to 2 teaspoons cinnamon.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Cut the bread into sticks, usually 3 sticks per slice depending on the bread size.
  2. Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt in a shallow bowl.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt a little butter.
  2. Dip each stick quickly in the egg mixture so it is coated but not soggy.
  3. Cook in the pan, turning to brown all sides.
  4. While they are warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar and serve right away.

Notes

For added fun, serve with toppings like maple syrup, honey, Greek yogurt, or chocolate sauce. Use thick bread for the best texture and keep an eye on the heat to avoid sogginess.
