Ingredients
- 4 thick slices slightly stale white bread
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup whole milk
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

- Cut bread into 9 cubes per slice (36 total). Whisk eggs, milk, and salt in a bowl until smooth. In another bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon. Melt 1.5 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Toss half the bread cubes in the egg mixture, shake off excess, and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently until golden.
