Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 loaf loaf of bread (white or brioche)
- 3 large large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup butter (melted)
Optional Toppings
- whipped cream
- maple syrup

Instructions
Preparation
- Cut the bread into bite-sized pieces (about 1-2 inches) and set them aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully integrated.
- Add the cut bread pieces into the egg mixture and ensure all the pieces are well-coated. Let them soak for about 5-10 minutes.
Cooking
- In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat.
- Carefully place the soaked bread pieces into the skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crisp.
- Once cooked, take the bites out and immediately roll them in granulated sugar.
- Add your favorite toppings and serve warm.
Notes
Use day-old bread for better absorption of egg mixture. Experiment with spices like nutmeg for added flavor. Avoid high heat to prevent burning.
