These torrijas were a bit too eggy for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I'll try using less eggs next time.

I'm not a big fan of cinnamon, so I omitted it from the recipe. The torrijas were still very good, but I think they would have been even better with the cinnamon.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. The torrijas are always crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the cinnamon sugar coating is the perfect finishing touch.

These torrijas were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try soaking the bread in the milk and egg mixture for a longer period of time next time.

I've made torrijas many times before, but this recipe is by far the best. The bread was perfectly soaked in the milk and egg mixture, and the frying process was spot-on.
