Best Bread for French Toast
Brioche is perfect for this cinnamon french toast sticks recipe because of it’s rich flavor which pairs perfectly with a great egg batter. Our kids absolutely fell in love with this brunch recipe. They loved dipping them in maple syrup and couldn’t stop talking about how good they are! If you are in the United States, Texas Toast works really well because it is already cut into thick slices; the perfect thickness for French Toast. You can dry out the bread by cutting it up and setting it out overnight. Or you can pop it in the oven for 15 minutes. If you put it in the oven, make sure to flip it once during baking so that it is dried out all around. To make these homemade french toast sticks dairy free, replace the half and half in this recipe with 1/2 a cup soy heavy cream and 1/2 cup soy milk. Set your oven to “warm” (or just keep it at the 200 degrees you had it at for drying out the bread). Set a casserole dish with a cover in the oven. As pieces of toast are cooked and covered with the cinnamon sugar mix, pop open the oven and toss them in the covered casserole dish. Keep them in a single layer so that the coating on them does not melt. When you go to sit down for breakfast or brunch, all the pieces of French Toast are perfectly warm. If you know you are going to have leftovers, skip tossing them in the cinnamon sugar mixture. That way you can reheat them on the stove top in a skillet for medium heat for about 3 minutes on each side.
