French Toast is commonly served as a breakfast food in the United States, and is a dish made in other countries as well. I think the more common way to eat french toast in the U.S. is with powdered sugar and honey on top, but my mom always made it with cinnamon & sugar as the topping, so that is the recipe I am sharing today. 🙂
French Toast is basically a slice of bread, dipped in egg, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon, fried in a pan, with sprinkled cinnamon & sugar on top. It is actually very easy to make, and can be made with whatever bread you think might be good. I got a little bit fancy here and made it with leftover homemade cinnamon swirl bread. Sounds like a cinnamon overload, but it really wasn’t. 🙂
The recipe is below. It makes 3 servings, but if you have a large family, you can easily double or triple the recipe. As far as the cinnamon & sugar topping, just sprinkle the amount you want on top of the bread, you don’t have to use the entire amount for three slices of bread. I usually just have some already mixed up on hand.
