Ingredients

  • 6 slices bread
  • 4 cups cornflakes
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch kosher salt

Instructions

  • Place cornflakes in a resealable bag and crush with the bottom of a dish or rolling pin. Pour crumbs into a shallow dish and set aside.
  • In a different shallow dish; whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon and salt.
  • Preheat a large skillet or griddle on medium heat, add a tablespoon of butter, swirling the pan to coat it with the melted butter.
  • Cut the bread on a diagonal and dip both sides into the egg mixture, drain off any excess batter and place in the dish with the cornflakes. Gently press the bread into the cornflakes so they stick.
  • Place the crusted french toast into the preheated pan and cook for about 4 minutes a side, adjust the heat if needed until the cornflakes are golden and the batter has had a chance to cook. Repeat with the remaining bread triangles.
  • Serve with butter and drizzle with honey! Enjoy!
