French Toast Sticks

French Toast Sticks are the kind of warm, comforting breakfast treat that make mornings feel fun again — soft on the inside, golden and crisp on the outside, and coated in cinnamon sugar that makes every bite taste like a hug. They’re nostalgic, cozy, and perfect for dipping, sharing, or stealing one more piece than you planned. One bite feels like childhood joy.

Ingredients
6 slices thick bread (Texas toast works best)
3 large eggs
1/2 cup milk or cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons sugar
Pinch of salt
Butter or oil for cooking

For coating (optional but delicious):
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

Instructions
Cut each slice of bread into 3–4 sticks.
In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, sugar, and salt.
Dip each bread stick into the mixture, coating well but not soaking too long.
Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Cook the sticks on all sides until golden and crisp.

For extra sweetness, mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and roll the warm sticks in the mixture.

Serve warm with maple syrup, honey, or powdered sugar — perfect for breakfast, snacks, or dipping on the go.
