Ingredients
- 8 slices Texas Toast bread
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup cream or whole milk
- 1 Tablespoon vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 3-4 Tablespoons salted butter
- powdered sugar
- maple syrup
Instructions
- Cut each slice of bread into 4 sticks. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, vanilla, sugar, and cinnamon.
- In a large pan, melt 1-2 tablespoons of the butter over medium heat.
- Working in batches, dip a few of the sticks of bread into the egg mixture at a time, turning to coat, then let the excess egg mixture drip off and place the sticks in the hot pan, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
- Cook the french toast sticks on each side, flipping until each side is golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve with maple syrup.

Notes
- Day-old, slightly stale or dried out bread works best for french toast because it soaks up more of the custardy egg mixture.
- You can use cream or milk for this recipe. Cream is a little more rich and custardy, but milk works too.
- To freeze: Lay the cooked french toast sticks on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Freeze for 2-3 hours, then transfer to a freezer-safe zip-tight bag. These can be reheated in a microwave, the oven at 300°F for 10 minutes, or by toasting them again in a pan.
