Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 4 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 and 1/2 cups milk
- 12 slices thick sliced French brioche bread (I use the brioche bread from Trader Joe’s)
- Maple syrup for dipping
Cinnamon Sugar Mixture:
- 5 tablespoons sugar
- 5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Beat eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar and a pinch of salt in a mixing bowl until well combined and slightly fluffy. Whisk in milk and then transfer the egg mixture to a shallow dish.
- Whisk together 5 tablespoons sugar with 5 teaspoons ground cinnamon for the cinnamon sugar coating. Place in a shallow dish.
- Cut each slice of bread into 3 long sticks.
- Lightly butter a griddle or skillet and heat over medium heat.
- Give each stick a quick dip in the egg mixture and then transfer to the heated griddle for cooking, be sure to let any excess egg mixture drip back into the shallow dish.
- Sauté each stick until golden brown and slightly crisp on all sides.
- Immediately transfer each cooked stick to the cinnamon sugar dish and roll to coat.
- Transfer the coated French Toast Sticks to a baking sheet and keep in a 200°F warming oven to keep warm while you cook the remaining sticks or until ready to serve.
- Serve warm with maple syrup to dunk them in.
Notes
They freeze great! Just let them cool completely and then transfer them to a freezer-safe container or baggie. To reheat, preheat oven to 350°F and bake from frozen for 10-15 minutes until heated through.
