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.

Provided by Ali Slagle

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.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cinnamon. Ceylon cinnamon is considered the best type of cinnamon for its sweet and delicate flavor. Look for organic cinnamon to avoid pesticides and other chemicals.
  • Toast your bread to perfection. The ideal toast is golden brown and crispy on the outside, but still soft and chewy on the inside. Toast your bread in a toaster, toaster oven, or under the broiler until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • Use real butter. Butter adds a rich and creamy flavor to cinnamon toast that margarine or other spreads can't match. If you're using unsalted butter, be sure to add a pinch of salt to the cinnamon sugar mixture.
  • Make your own cinnamon sugar mixture. It's easy to make your own cinnamon sugar mixture at home. Simply combine sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. You can also add other spices, such as nutmeg or ginger, to taste.
  • Spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly. Use a spoon or your fingers to spread the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the toasted bread. Be sure to get all the edges.

Conclusion:

Cinnamon toast is a classic breakfast or snack that is easy to make and loved by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious and satisfying treat that is perfect for any occasion. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy breakfast or snack, reach for some bread, butter, cinnamon, and sugar. You won't be disappointed!
