Step 3: Dip the Bread Cubes
- Add a handful of bread cubes into the custard mixture at a time.
- Gently toss until all sides are coated—don’t let them soak too long or they’ll fall apart.
- Remove and place them on a plate while you heat the pan.
Step 4: Cook the French Toast Bites
- Heat a nonstick pan or skillet over medium heat.
- Add a small amount of butter and let it melt to coat the surface.
- Place the custard-coated bread cubes into the pan in a single layer.
- Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, rotating until all sides are golden-brown and slightly crisp.
- Add more butter between batches as needed.
Step 5: Roll in Cinnamon Sugar
Prepare a small bowl by mixing cinnamon and sugar.
While the bites are still warm, roll them in the mixture.
This ensures the sugar sticks perfectly and creates that irresistible sweet coating.
Step 6: Serve Warm
Cinnamon French Toast Bites are best enjoyed hot and fresh right out of the pan.
Serve them with:
- Maple syrup
- Dipping sauces
- Fresh berries
- Powdered sugar
- A dollop of whipped cream
They also make an amazing handheld brunch snack for a crowd.
🌟 Tips for the Best French Toast Bites
- Use thick, sturdy bread: Soft sandwich bread becomes mushy.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan: This helps them brown evenly.
- Heat control matters: Too high and they burn outside; too low and they get soggy.
- Serve immediately: They lose crispiness as they cool.
- Make ahead? Yes! Cook them, let them cool, then reheat in the oven or air fryer for quick mornings.
