French Toast Sticks

For French toast,  2 or 3 day old thick bread slices are highly recommended but here I used the normal wheat sandwich bread since that what I all had in  my hand. If we are serving hot for breakfast, we can have with honey or maple syrup.

Yummy Sticks!!!

While packing for kids lunch box, make sure to cool it down completely before placing in the lunch box so that it wont turn soggy. I prefer slicing the toast into sticks while packing for lunch so that kids would feel very easy to pick and eat. Also I sprinkle powdered sugar over them. 

French Toast

Ingredients:

• Bread slices -3 nos (I used Wheat Sandwich Bead)
• Egg  - 1 no
• Milk  - 2 tbsp (At Room temperature)
• Sugar  - 1 to 1.5 tsp (adjust as per sweetness)
• Vanilla extract  - 1/2 tsp
• Cinnamon powder  - 1/4 to 1/2 tsp
• Salt - a pinch
• Melted Butter - for toasting 
• Powdered Sugar / Honey / Maple Syrup - For Serving

Method: 

1. To make the bread slices little firm, I usually toast it for few mins in a non greased pan or in the oven (350 F for 5 to 10 mins)
   
2. In a bowl (wide enough to place a bread slice), add the egg and milk
   
3. Add Sugar, Salt, Cinnamon powder and Vanilla extract and mix well until they get combined
   
4. Heat a tawa or a cast iron pan in medium heat and once it becomes hot, grease with butter
5. Quickly dip a bread slice in the egg mixture until it gets well coated on both the sides
   
6. We need to dip it quickly or else it would become soggy. If there's any excess mixture, allow it to drip
   
7. Place it on the hot buttered pan and toast it in a low to medium flame for few mins until it gets well toasted on both the sides
   
   
   
8. Remove it from the pan and repeat the same for the remaining two slices
   
9. Serve hot with honey or syrup or with fruits
   
10. If packing for Kids lunch box, sprinkle powdered sugar on both the sides and allow it to cool down in a wire rack
    
11. Once its cooled down, we can slice them into sticks
    
12. Pack them into lunch box!
