Ingredients
- 4 large eggs, room temperature
- 1¼ cups (306 g) whole milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- ⅛ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon, or more or less to taste
- 10-12 slices thick bread, like Texas toast
- 6 cups (240 g) Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal
- 2 tablespoons butter
- pure maple syrup
Instructions
- In a large bowl, beat eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon with a whisk until smooth. Set aside.
- Add Cinnamon Toast Crunch to a large zipper storage bag. Remove the air from the bag and seal it shut. Use a rolling pin (or your hands) to slightly crush the cereal into a smaller crumb. (You will end up with about 4½ cups crushed cereal.)
- Add the crushed cereal to a plate in an even layer.
- Heat griddle over medium heat, about 350°F. Add a tablespoon of butter to the griddle.
- Working in batches, dip slices of bread into the egg mixture (not soaking the bread) and then into the Cinnamon Toast Crunch crumbs. Press down slightly so the crumb sticks.
- Place the bread on the hot griddle and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Add more butter before cooking the next batch.
- Serve with room temperature butter, maple syrup, whipped topping, or more cereal. Best served hot.
