I’ve always loved French Toast, but there’s something about French Toast Sticks that just makes breakfast seem so much more fun. Is it the syrup dipping? Maybe it’s the syrup dipping. Either way, I wanted to make breakfast for my family, and after making my Sheet Pan Blueberry Pancakes for two weeks in a row (a family favorite!), I thought I’d change it up and make these French Toast Sticks. You guys, they’re so good and they only use six ingredients! I didn’t use the ultra-thick Texas Toast bread that most food bloggers use, or really do anything fancy to make these, but it didn’t matter. They taste amazing. You can pretty much use whatever unassuming sandwich bread you have on hand. White, wheat, Italian, whatever. I mean, I wouldn’t use rye bread, so maybe not every bread, but I trust your judgement. I used D’Italiano Seedless Italian bread this time, because that’s what we had on hand! Then all you need are a few more ingredients you probably have in your kitchen (milk, eggs, cinnamon, vanilla extract) and a skillet or griddle.
When we got married, we were lucky enough to get a countertop electric griddle that I didn’t even think to register for, and I love using it for French toast and pancakes. It’s such an easy way to make a larger quantity all at once with even heat distribution. If you don’t have one (I never knew I needed one until we had it), a large skillet or griddle pan on your stovetop will work great (you’ll just have to work in batches). Once you’re done, sprinkle those babies with a little powdered sugar and serve! Not only are these French Toast Sticks tasty and easy to make, each one is just 39 calories or 1 WW Point.

French Toast Sticks are freezer-friendly! Once they’re cooked you can line them up on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer for an hour. Once they are frozen, transfer them into a Ziploc freezer bag and put them back in the freezer. Freezing them individually first helps them not form into one giant frozen French toast stick blob in the bag. To reheat, you can either microwave them or bake them lined up on a baking sheet for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees.
