Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Bread: Trim the crusts from thick slices of bread and cut each slice into sticks, about an inch thick.
  2. Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
  3. Mix Cinnamon and Sugar: Combine the sugar and cinnamon on a plate to create a coating for the French toast sticks.
  4. Heat the Pan: Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and melt a tablespoon of butter, ensuring it coats the surface.
  5. Dip the Bread Sticks: Dip each bread stick into the egg wash, coating all sides evenly and letting excess drip off.
  6. Fry the Sticks: Place the coated bread sticks into the skillet, frying for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  7. Roll in Cinnamon-Sugar: Remove sticks from the pan and roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture for an even coating.
  8. Serve Warm: Arrange the sticks on a warm plate and add toppings like syrup or fruit as desired.
