I'm allergic to eggs, so I used a flax egg instead. The rabanadas still turned out great!

These rabanadas were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more milk to the batter next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my rabanadas turned out soggy. I think I might have used too much milk.

I'm not a big fan of cinnamon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The rabanadas were still delicious, even without the cinnamon.

These rabanadas were a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I'll try using less eggs next time.

These rabanadas were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.

I've never had rabanadas before, but I'm definitely a fan now. They're so easy to make and they taste amazing. I especially love the way the bread soaks up the milk and eggs.

My family loved this recipe! It was a hit at our brunch table. The rabanadas were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the cinnamon-sugar coating was the perfect finishing touch.
