Thread: French Toast Sticks

These are so good I like to make a huge batch at a time and freeze them, rather than buying the store bought ones. The original recipe calls for orange juice although I haven't tried it that way.

Ingredients:

8 slices bread (Texas Toast style or French) Have also use Hawaiian bread loaf which is the best but not as easy to find sometimes.
1/4 cup melted butter
4 eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
2/3 cup milk
3/4 teaspoon vanilla

Directions:
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2 Cut each slice of bread into 3 pieces to make sticks. Texas Toast is a very thick sliced bread about 3/4" thick. You could substitute french bread if Texas toast is not available.
3 In a bowl, mix together melted butter, eggs, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla and milk. Beat well.
4 Dip sticks into egg mixture and place on a cookie sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
5 If there is any dip left, you can drizzle it over the sticks.
6 Bake for 25 minutes on middle rack of oven. Turn halfway through baking time.
7 Allow to cool.
8 Flash freeze on cookie sheet, remove and place in a ziploc bag.
9 To reheat: place 3 sticks on a microwave-safe plate and heat on high for 1 minute until warm. Serve with syrup.
