Ingredients

• 6 slices Thick sliced bread (e.g., brioche or Texas toast)
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 0.5 cups Milk
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons Butter (for cooking)
• 1 cup Maple syrup or dipping sauce
• 1 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Cut each slice of bread into 3 equal-sized strips to create 'sticks.'

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

Preheat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 4

Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated but not over-soaked, then gently shake off any excess.

Step 5

Place the coated bread sticks in the skillet in a single layer, leaving a bit of space between each piece. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side, or until golden brown.

Step 6

Flip the sticks and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes on the other side until evenly browned and cooked through.

Step 7

Repeat with the remaining bread sticks, adding more butter to the skillet as needed between batches.

Step 8

Serve warm with a dusting of powdered sugar (if using) and a side of maple syrup or your preferred dipping sauce.
