French Toast Sticks (4 servings) 10 slices white bread - cut into thirds 1/2 cup all-purpose flour 1 and 1/4 cups milk 2 large eggs 2 teaspoons cinnamon 1 teaspoon vanilla In a large shallow bowl, beat together all of the ingredients , except for the bread. Heat a large skillet of griddle to medium heat. Spray surface generously with cooking spray. Make sure surface is hot before cooking. Test with a drop of water. If it kind of dances, the pan or griddle is ready. If it just sizzles, let it get a bit hotter. Dip the bread sticks into the wet mixture until well-coated on both sides. Place the sticks on the skillet or pan. Cook until golden brown on each side - about 3 or 4 minutes per side. Serve the sticks warm - but cool enough to handle. I usually warm a little maple syrup - just on low in the microwave for 10 seconds. If each person get a tiny serving dish of syrup, it makes a nice, fun presentation. Dip your sticks and enjoy! After making this recipe, I now always add just a touch of flour to my French Toast batters. It really helps make that distinctive outer coating come out more.
