Ingredients
Ingredients
- 4 slices sandwich bread
- 1/4 cup (56g) salted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the bread slices on a broiler-safe, ungreased, and unlined baking sheet.
- Prepare Cinnamon Butter: In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Use a fork to mix until the paste is uniform and smooth.
- Spread Mixture: Evenly divide the cinnamon butter mixture among the bread slices, spreading it completely from edge to edge for full coverage.
- Bake Toast: Place the baking sheet on the top or center rack of the oven, ensuring it is in the upper half but at least 5 inches away from the broiler to prevent burning. Bake for 10 minutes or until the bread is lightly crispy.
- Broil Toast: Turn the broiler on high and broil the toast for 1 to 2 minutes until the cinnamon sugar mixture bubbles. Watch closely to prevent burning and remove from oven if edges begin to blacken.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the toast to cool slightly before slicing and enjoying the warm, crispy cinnamon toast.
Notes
- Use softened butter for easy mixing and even spreading.
- Keep a close eye during the broiling step to avoid burning the toast.
- If you prefer less sweetness, reduce the sugar slightly.
- This toast is best enjoyed fresh but can be reheated briefly in the oven to regain crispiness.
