Ingredients
Ingredients
4 slices of bread
4 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the broiler: Set your oven broiler to high and allow it to heat up while you prepare the toast.
Mix cinnamon sugar: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon thoroughly to create the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Butter the bread: Spread the softened butter evenly over one side of each slice of bread, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor and crispiness.
Add cinnamon sugar topping: Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously and evenly over the buttered side of each slice of bread.
Broil the toast: Place the prepared bread slices on a baking sheet, then put it under the preheated broiler. Broil for 2-3 minutes or until the sugar bubbles and the edges of the toast turn golden brown. Watch carefully to avoid burning.
Serve warm: Remove from the oven and serve immediately while warm and crispy for the best taste experience.
Notes
Use day-old bread for better texture and crispiness.
Keep a close watch while broiling to prevent burning, as broiler temperatures can vary.
For a richer flavor, consider using cinnamon sugar with a bit of brown sugar mixed in.
Optional: add a dash of vanilla extract to the butter for extra aroma.
