CINNAMON TOAST



Cinnamon Toast image

The ingredients for cinnamon toast - bread, cinnamon, sugar and butter - have remained largely unchanged since the recipe first appeared in 15th century Europe, where it was introduced as a less expensive version of French toast. Some variations call for adding the cinnamon and sugar before toasting, others after. The secret to achieving a cinnamon toast that's both gooey and crunchy? A combination of both methods. Toast the bread in butter in a skillet, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar, flip so the sugar caramelizes, then sprinkle with more cinnamon sugar when it's done. Toasting the bread in a skillet (like French toast) produces browned butter, which adds nutty warmth.

Categories     breakfast, brunch, breads, side dish

Time 10m

Yield 4 slices

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 tablespoons granulated or brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
Unsalted butter, for cooking
4 slices of bread, such as white, whole wheat or brioche

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, cinnamon and salt.
  • Melt some butter in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-low; you'll want enough to lightly coat the bottom of the skillet when melted. When bubbling, add as many bread slices as will fit. Swirl the bread around to absorb the butter, adding more butter if the pan is dry. Cook until light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning.
  • Add another pat of butter, flip the bread and swirl to coat the other side in butter, gently pressing the bread to pick up any browned bits. Sprinkle the toasted tops edge to edge with a thin layer of the cinnamon sugar. Cook until the underside is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes, adding more butter and adjusting temperature if the pan is dry or the toast is burning.
  • Flip and cook until the sugar sizzles and starts to melt, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a plate, sugar side up. (If any melted sugar sticks to the pan, gently swipe the bread over it to pick it up.) Sprinkle toasts with more cinnamon sugar. Wipe skillet and repeat with any remaining bread.

  • Choose ripe bananas. Overripe bananas will yield the best flavor and texture in your cinnamon crunchies.
  • Use a food processor or blender to mash the bananas. This will help to create a smooth and consistent batter.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cinnamon crunchies tough.
  • Use a nonstick skillet or griddle to cook the cinnamon crunchies. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the cinnamon crunchies over medium heat. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Flip the cinnamon crunchies once during cooking. This will help to ensure that they cook evenly on both sides.
  • Serve the cinnamon crunchies warm. They are best enjoyed fresh out of the skillet.
