Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 18 by 13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper. In a small bowl whisk together sugar and cinnamon, set aside.
- In a medium mixing bowl, vigorously whisk together milk, eggs, vanilla and salt until very well blended. Cut each slice of bread into even three strips (you can layer a few slices to cut several at a time). Dip each portion (I usually dip 2 sticks at a time) into egg mixture then lift and let excess run off and transfer to prepared baking sheet (they will have to fit closely together but leave just a little space between them).
- Using a basting brush, brush tops of french toast sticks lightly with 1 Tbsp of the melted butter. Sprinkle tops evenly with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Bake in preheated oven for 13 minutes. Remove from oven, flip french toast sticks to opposite side and brush tops lightly with remaining 1 Tbsp melted butter and sprinkle evenly with remaining cinnamon sugar mixture. Return to oven and continue to bake until cooked through, about 13 - 18 minutes longer. Let cool for a few minutes. Brush lightly with a little more melted butter if desired and serve warm with maple syrup for dipping.

STICKY BAKED FRENCH TOAST
This is a delicious pan of french toast that is perfect for brunch. It is refrigerated overnight. I found this recipe at helenjane.com in 2005 and baked it for my family. Thanks Helen Jane, the family enjoyed it and I want to have it archived on the computer since I cannot find it on your site any longer. It has been a while since I last made it and I can't remember how many servings I got out of a pan or the exact prep time.

Tips:
- Use a good quality bread for your French toast sticks. A bread that is slightly stale will work best, as it will absorb the egg mixture more evenly.
- Cut the bread into 1-inch thick slices. This will help them cook evenly.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Dip the bread slices into the egg mixture, turning to coat both sides.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and swirl to coat the pan. Cook the bread slices in the skillet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve the French toast sticks immediately with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Baked French toast sticks are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch treat. They are perfect for a crowd, as they can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can enjoy this classic dish at home.
