How to Make Cinnamon Toast Crunch French Toast
To start, place the cereal in a plastic bag or bowl and crush it up leaving some bigger pieces. Then, transfer crushed cereal into a small bowl if you used a bag. Next, in another small bowl, combine the milk and eggs. Whisk together well to combine.
Then, heat a skillet over medium heat. Once warm add half of the butter and let melt. Then, dip 3 slices of bread into the milk and egg mixture being sure to coat both sides. Then, dip into the crushed cereal on both sides.
Place coated bread onto heated skillet. Cook until lightly golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes per side. Set cooked french toast aside and cook the next 3 pieces in the same way.
Once french toast is cooked, top with butter and maple syrup and serve immediately.
