Ingredients

  • 8 Slices of bread
  • 4 Large Eggs
  • 1 Cup Heavy cream
  • 2 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp Powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp Butter for brushing the pan
  • Powdered sugar for dusting optional
  • Cinnamon sugar for dusting optional

Instructions

  • Cut the crust off all four sides of the bread and cut each slice into 3 1-inch sticks.
  • Break the eggs into a large, shallow bowl and whisk until they are well blended.
  • Add the heavy cream and vanilla and whisk until you have a smooth custard.
  • Whisk in the cinnamon and powdered sugar. It's ok if there are a few powdered sugar lumps.
  • Heat a large, non-stick griddle over medium heat and brush with butter.
  • Dip each stick in the custard making sure all the sides and edges are coated then place on the griddle. Repeat with remaining sticks, working in batches if necessary.
  • Cook for about 5 minutes, or until the bottom is lightly golden brown then flip and cook an additional 5 minutes to toast the other side.
  • Move to a plate and dust with powdered sugar or cinnamon sugar and serve with maple syrup.
