Cinnamon French Toast Sticks (Printable Version)
Crispy, golden cinnamon sticks for a speedy, kid-approved breakfast.
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
8 pieces chunky Texas toast
02 -
4 fresh eggs
03 -
1 cup whipping cream
04 -
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
05 -
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
06 -
1 tablespoon pure vanilla
07 -
Plain butter, for the pan
08 -
Pancake syrup, for dipping
# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Slice each piece of Texas toast into four strips. Put them aside.
02 -
Grab a big bowl and beat eggs, whipping cream, cinnamon, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
03 -
Take each bread strip and dunk it in the egg mix, making sure all sides get wet. Tap off any extra, then place soaked strips on a dish.
04 -
Warm up a big pan on medium and drop in 2 to 3 tablespoons butter. When it's melted, add the soaked strips in one layer - don't crowd them. Let them get golden on one side, then flip and cook until every edge turns crispy and brown.
05 -
Bring them straight to the table with syrup on the side for dunking.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Bread that's a day old and slightly dry soaks up the egg mix better.
02 -
Sturdy bread with firm crusts won't fall apart during cooking.
03 -
Want to save some? Let them cool totally, freeze them flat first, then pack in a freezer box. Warm them up in an air fryer or toaster oven to keep them crunchy.
