Description
Delicious cinnamon sugar toast made with thick-cut bread and a spreadable cinnamon sugar butter.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 slices of thick-cut bread (like brioche or Texas toast)
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.
- Make the Cinnamon Sugar Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, granulated sugar, cinnamon, and a tiny pinch of salt. Mix until smooth and well blended. It should look like a cinnamon-scented spreadable paste.
- Toast and Spread: Lay your slices of bread on the prepared baking sheet. Generously spread the cinnamon sugar butter over each slice, going all the way to the edges so no corner is left dry.
- Bake: Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the butter mixture is bubbling and the edges of the bread start to crisp up.
- Broil for That Golden Finish: Optional but highly recommended: Turn the oven to broil and broil the toast for 1–2 minutes, just until the tops get golden and slightly caramelized. Keep an eye on it—this part goes fast.
- Serve and Savor: Remove from oven and let the slices cool slightly before serving. The cinnamon sugar will set into a crackly, shiny top layer. Slice into triangles or serve whole with a warm drink.
Notes
- Be careful while broiling, as it can burn quickly.
- For a sweeter taste, adjust the sugar as preferred.
