Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 c whole milk
- 1/8 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1 tsp. plus ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon, divided
- 1/3 c granulated sugar
- 4 slices Hawaiian thick-cut bread, such as Sara Lee Artesano Hawaiian
- 2 tbsp. vegetable oil, plus more as needed
- warm maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and ⅛ teaspoon cinnamon.
- Combine sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon on a plate and set aside.
- Take the Hawaiian bread slices and cut the crusts off using a serrated knife. Cut each piece of crustless bread into 3 “sticks”.
- Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat with the oil in the bottom of the skillet.
- Coat each stick of bread in the egg mixture before placing it in the skillet.
- Repeat with 6 to 8 sticks at one time, keeping an inch of space in between the sticks so they are not crowded in the pan.
- Gently use tongs to flip and rotate each stick as it cooks, ensuring that all sides are golden brown.
- 8When thoroughly cooked, remove each stick and immediately roll it in the cinnamon sugar to coat.
- Set aside while you finish cooking the remaining sticks. You may need to add a bit of additional oil to the pan in between batches.
- Serve with maple syrup.
