This post is part of the Tot Tuesday series. It’s also included in the recipe section.
This morning, I wanted to make something a bit special for the kids for breakfast. Every once in awhile I like to do something “treat like” for them. Usually it’s on special days (like the cake batter pancakes for my daughter’s birthday). Sometimes though, it’s just because I love them and want them to feel special!
It’s usually something I wouldn’t serve them everyday, and it usually is on the sweeter side!
This Cinnamon Toast Recipe is something that my husband’s Nana made for him when he was a little boy, and it’s very special to him.
I decided to make the kids some Cinnamon toast made using the cinnamon toast recipe my husband taught me.
Who was taught by his Nana 🙂 .
All you need is about 5 minutes and some cinnamon, sugar, butter & bread for this cinnamon toast recipe.
♥ Turn the broiler on in your oven.
♥ Lay some foil out on a baking sheet.
♥ Throw some slices of bread onto your baking sheet and add pats of butter (he said you shouldn’t spread it too much! You want some parts to be a bit more buttery. 😉 )
♥ Mix some sugar and some cinnamon together and sprinkle over the toast until it’s all covered thinly.
♥ Throw under the broiler until it browns and caramelizes!
♥ Take it out and serve (it will be hot so give it a couple minutes to cool!).
We don’t toast the other side of the bread for this cinnamon toast recipe.
Don’t ask why though.
I’m honestly not sure why, but I think it tastes better!
The kids GOBBLED it up!
They loved it!
I hope you will too!
