Method
 

  1. Step 1: Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar: In a small bowl, mix together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: Make the French Toast Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Step 3: Dip the Bread: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow any excess to drip off.

  6. Step 6: Serve: Serve the churro French toast warm, dusted with powdered sugar if desired. Enjoy with syrup or fresh fruit!

Notes

If you have any leftovers—though I doubt it—you can store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the toaster or in a skillet for that freshly made taste again!
