Crunchy Churro French Toast Sticks

Ingredients (for 2 servings)

1 loaf brioche bread 

3 eggs 

3 tablespoons milk 

2 teaspoons brown sugar 

2 teaspoons cinnamon 

1 teaspoon vanilla 

2 cups cornflakes 

2 tablespoons butter 

1 ½ cups cinnamon sugar 

Instructions

1. Remove crust from bread. (I left it on the top and just removed from the sides.)
2. Cut bread into large square pieces. 
3. Crush cornflakes in a baggie, pour into shallow dish, and set aside. 
4. Mix eggs, milks, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla in a bowl. 
5. Heat skillet with about 1 tablespoon of butter. 
6. Dip bread into egg mixture on all sides. Coat in crushed cornflakes. 
7. Grill on all sides until golden brown in skillet. 
8. Immediately roll in cinnamon sugar mixture. 
9. Serve with syrup or chocolate sauce for dipping.

Notes: These were amazing and I'll definitely be making them again. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The brioche loaf I found also had vanilla swirls in it, which was a nice addition. There were a couple of suggestions in the comments of the source link that I followed and were helpful: 1) use a mix of oil and butter in the pan - with butter only they burn easily. 2) finish them up in the oven at 350° for 5-8 minutes.
