8 to 10 slices thick-cut bread
1/4 cup butter, melted
4 eggs
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
pinch of salt
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Cut the thick bread slices into thirds so you have 3 sticks per slice of bread.
Combine remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl, beat well to combine.
Dip bread sticks into the egg mixture one at a time, and place on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake in a 350º oven for about 30 minutes. Flip the sticks over halfway through baking time to crisp both sides.
**To freeze, allow to cool completely before wrapping well in a freezer bag. To reheat, pop in a 350 oven for about 8 minutes to refresh. Alternatively, they can be reheated in a microwave for a minute or two, but they will lose their crispness.

I’m confused! If I cut a slice of bread into thirds, won’t that give me 3 sticks per slice of bread?

LOL! Vicki! Well done! This recipe has been up for over two years- I’ve never noticed that before. Off to change it now.

I have tried this and LOVE it! I will NEVER buy french toast sticks again. I have an outlet that sells the french toast bread for $1.00 a loaf, so this in itself is quiet a savings to our house, and I ALWAYS have all ingredients on hand. Win-win situation.
Great recipe, thanks!!!
