Baked Cinnamon French Toast Sticks
Thanks to a quick dunk in cinnamon sugar, these Baked Cinnamon French Toast Sticks come out of the oven crispy on the outside and tender and soft on the inside.
Servings: 4 Servings
Cost: $8.00
Equipment
- 2 Baking Dishes
- Foil or Parchment
- Wire Rack
Ingredients
- 4 thick slices of Brioche bread
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (substitute heavy cream for a richer flavor)
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- berries or syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350F.
- While the oven is heating, line a baking dish with foil or parchment and place an oven-safe cooling rack on top. Spray the cooling rack with nonstick cooking spray.
- Slice bread into even "sticks", about 4 per slice.
- In one shallow baking dish whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla until even.
- In a second shallow baking dish, stir together sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll the bread sticks in the egg mixture until just coated (don't let them soak up too much of the liquid). Then roll them in cinnamon-sugar and place on the prepared cooling rack, leaving at least 1 inch between each stick.
- Bake until crisp and golden brown on top, 20 to 24 minutes. (These do not need to be turned during cooking.)
- Serve immediately with berries or syrup or other toppings that you'd like!
