Crispy French Toast

Ingredients

12 pieces Texas Toast Style Bread
4 whole Eggs
1-½ cup Milk
1-½ teaspoon Vanilla
4 cups Captain Crunch Cereal
2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1 teaspoon Nutmeg
Butter, For The Pan

Preparation Instructions

Beat the eggs, milk and vanilla together. Set aside.

Place the cereal, nutmeg and cinnamon in a gallon sized bag. Crush the cereal into a course consistency. I used the heel of my hand to crush the cereal. Shake the bag to mix the spices with the cereal.

Place some butter on your skillet/pan and turn on the heat to medium. Sprinkle the cereal mixture onto a plate. Dunk the bread in the egg mixture on both sides. Place the bread on the cereal and press into the cereal. Flip the bread and repeat. Place the bread on the skillet and cook for about 4 minutes. Because you are using the Texas toast make sure the side is really brown before flipping. Cook on the other side the same way.

Serve with butter and syrup.

If you have extra you can easily freeze this by sticking the bread on a cookie sheet for about an hour in the freezer and then putting them in a gallon sized bag so they don’t stick together.

I found this recipe online, made it for breakfast for my parents when visiting and it was a hit. The crispy part is the best, I love Captain Crunch!
