Directions

Kids: Crack 2 eggs into flat-bottomed bowl. Thoroughly whisk in milk and cinnamon. Dip bread slices, one at a time, into egg mixture in bowl, wetting both sides. Re-dip, if necessary, until all the egg mixture is absorbed into the bread.

Adults: Meanwhile, heat large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add butter. Place dipped bread slices in skillet. Cook for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes per side, or until both sides are golden brown.

Kids: Drizzle each with syrup. Serve while warm.
