Ingredients
– 4 slices slightly stale white bread cut into 9 cubes each Base that absorbs the egg mixture
– 2 large or 3 small eggs Binds and adds richness
– 1/4 cup milk Moistens the bread for the custard
– A pinch of salt
– 1/4 cup white sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder
– 3 tablespoons butter divided into two portions of 1 1/2 tablespoons each
– Maple syrup for dipping
Instructions
1-Getting started with these Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites is a breeze, and Iβll walk you through it like weβre chatting in the kitchen. First, grab your ingredients and mix the egg mixture by whisking 2 large eggs (or 3 small ones), 1/4 cup milk, and a pinch of salt in a shallow dish. This creates a simple custard that coats the bread just right.
2-Next, cut 4 thick slices of slightly stale white bread into 9 equal cubes each, aiming for about 1 inch thick to keep them sturdy. Heat your skillet over medium heat and melt 1 1/2 tablespoons of butter, making sure not to let it brown for the best results. Dip each bread cube into the egg mixture, letting it soak briefly without getting soggy, then add to the skillet.
3-Cook the cubes for 2 to 3 minutes per batch, turning them until theyβre browned on all sides that golden crispiness is what makes them so yummy. For more flavor, immediately toss the cooked cubes in a mixture of 1/4 cup white sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon powder. Serve them hot with maple syrup for dipping, and youβve got a crowd-pleaser ready in no time.
4-Gather and whisk the eggs, milk, and salt.
5-Cut the bread into cubes.
6-Melt butter in the skillet.
7-Dip and cook the bread cubes until golden.
8-Toss in cinnamon sugar and serve warm.
