Ingredients
-
4 slices white bread (or another bread of your choice)
-
2 tablespoons butter
-
1/4 teaspoon salt
-
1 teaspoon cinnamon
-
1 tablespoon sugar
-
Milk of choice, for serving
Directions
Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin (this helps give you the perfect crunch).
- Slice the crusts off each piece and cut the bread into small 1/2 inch squares.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Melt two tablespoons of butter.
- Add the bread squares to the pan and coat evenly with butter (the butter helps the cinnamon coating stick).
- Season with salt.
- In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar.
- Once the bread is toasted in the pan, sprinkle the cinnamon mix in.
- Give the pan a toss to evenly coat the squares. Keep toasting until the sugar has melted and starts to harden on the bread. It should have a crunch!
- Stir every few minutes so it doesn't burn.
- Once the squares are golden brown and fully coated in cinnamon and sugar, remove from heat and let cool.
- Pour the homemade cereal in a bowl and top with a milk of your choice. Enjoy!
