Start by making the egg mixture for the French toast.

Add 3 eggs to a mixing bowl.

Pour in about 2 tablespoons of milk and whisk together until well combined.

Add about 1/8 teaspoon of cinnamon to the egg mixture and whisk again.

Set the egg mixture aside.

Take Texas toast style bread and cut off the crusts (optional).

Cut each slice of bread into thirds to form sticks.

In a pie plate, combine about 1/2 cup of sugar with about 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and mix well.

Set the cinnamon sugar mixture aside.

Heat a non-stick skillet or pancake griddle over medium heat (about 350°F or 176°C).

Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture using tongs, ensuring they are coated but not soaked too long to avoid mushiness.

Add about 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet and let it melt.

Once the butter is melted and the skillet is hot, place the coated bread sticks in the skillet.

Cook the bread sticks until browned on each side, turning them as necessary; this may take longer than normal French toast.

Once browned, remove the sticks from the skillet and place them on a plate.

Roll the cooked French toast sticks in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.

Serve with maple syrup or other dipping sauces like strawberry sauce or chocolate sauce.
