Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture generously over the buttered bread slices, making sure to cover them entirely with the sweet spice.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges of the bread are golden brown and the cinnamon sugar has caramelized.
