Ingredients

  • 8 slices cinnamon swirl bread
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Maple syrup and powdered sugar for serving

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Make the Batter

In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth.

Step 2: Dip the Bread

Dip each slice of cinnamon swirl bread into the egg mixture, coating both sides.

Step 3: Cook the French Toast

Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook slices 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.

Step 4: Serve

Serve immediately with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or whipped cream.


🍞 Note: Thick-cut cinnamon bread works best for a rich and custardy texture.

🎯 Pro Tip: Add a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar while cooking for a caramelized crust.
