Ingredients
- 1 loaf day-old bread (French baguette or similar)
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 pcs large eggs
- 1 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.5 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
Directions
Step 1
Cut the day-old bread loaf into 1-inch thick slices and set aside.
Step 2
In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and whole milk until fully combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, beat the eggs until smooth.
Step 4
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep frying pan over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).
Step 5
Take one slice of bread and dip it into the milk mixture, allowing it to soak for about 5 seconds on each side. Ensure it’s saturated but not falling apart.
Step 6
Next, dip the soaked bread into the beaten eggs, coating both sides evenly.
Step 7
Carefully place the coated bread slice into the hot oil and fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pan; fry in batches if necessary.
Step 8
Remove the fried bread slices and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
In a small bowl, mix the sugar and ground cinnamon together. While the bread slices are still warm, sprinkle or generously coat them with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
Step 10
Serve warm on their own or with a drizzle of honey, maple syrup, or a dollop of whipped cream for extra indulgence.
