- Whisk eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon and a pinch of salt in a shallow dish.
- Heat half the butter in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
- Dip two slices of bread in the egg mixture for a few seconds on each side.
- Fry for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
- Repeat with the remaining butter and bread slices.
- Serve hot with extra cinnamon sugar, berries or a drizzle of honey.
Notes
Use slightly stale bread so it soaks up the egg mixture without falling apart.
Keep the heat medium so the centre cooks through before the outside gets too dark.
