Cinnamon French Toast Bites
Cinnamon French Toast Bites are delightful bite-sized treats that are fun to make and eat, tasting like mini cinnamon sugar doughnuts.
Equipment
- fry pan
- medium bowl
- shallow bowl
- Wooden Spoon
Ingredients
- 4 slices thick slices of slightly stale white bread 1"/2.5cm thick
- 2 large eggs or 3 small eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 pinch salt
- ¼ cup white sugar
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon powder
- 3 tablespoon butter separated
- Maple syrup to serve (not optional)
Instructions
- Cut the crust off the bread, then cut each piece into 9 equal cubes.
- Whisk the eggs, milk and salt in a medium bowl.
- Combine sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
- Melt 1 ½ tablespoon of butter in a fry pan over medium high heat. Don't let the butter brown.
- Quickly toss half the bread cubes in the egg mixture and use your hands to shake off excess egg mixture. Place the bread cubes in the fry pan and use a wooden spoon to 'sauté' them until browned on all sides - about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the bread cubes from the fry pan straight into the sugar mixture. Toss to coat, then remove onto a plate.
- Repeat with remaining bread cubes.
- Serve immediately, with maple syrup for dipping.
Notes
Using slightly stale bread is recommended to prevent the bread from soaking up too much egg mixture, resulting in soggy insides.
