French Toast Sticks

Bacon or Sausage

Method

Prepare the French Toast Sticks

  1. 1

    Whisk the Egg Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.

  2. 2

    Cut the Bread

    Cut each slice of thick bread into 3 equal sticks to form finger-sized pieces.

  3. 3

    Dip the Bread

    Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, ensuring each piece is fully coated. Allow excess mixture to drip off.

  4. 4

    Cook the Sticks

    In a non-stick skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add half of the dipped bread sticks to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Repeat with remaining butter and bread sticks.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the French toast sticks immediately with maple syrup on the side for dipping.

Cook the Bacon or Sausage

  1. 6

    Cook the Bacon

    In a separate skillet, cook the bacon strips over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
