Cinnamon Toast brings back childhood memories of breakfast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Back in the day when my brothers and I were kids, breakfast was an important meal around our house, especially on school days. Each morning, Mother cooked breakfast of biscuits, eggs, ham or bacon, and grits. On cold days, she fixed us a cup of her homemade hot cocoa<\/a> topped with marshmallows to add a little more kick of sugar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lot of mornings, whether cold outside or not, we had coffee with cream and sugar. Loaded. And then we were sent off to school, caffeinated to the hilt. That was before decaf coffee. It’s no wonder I got in trouble for talking too much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wasted nothing at our house, so when a loaf of bread was too dry for sandwiches, she used the dry bread to make French toast<\/a> or cinnamon toast instead of biscuits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This morning I had a few pieces of sourdough bread and end pieces of whole wheat bread, so I decided it was time for some crunchy cinnamon toast like my mama made. It was some good eating with my healthy protein shake. I really wished for a cup of my mama’s super-duper caffeinated coffee loaded with cream and sugar. I would be a “Chatty-Cathy” all day long. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Use this quick and simple recipe to bake a batch of this delicious cinnamon toast! It’s a perfect complement to a breakfast menu but also makes a tasty afternoon snack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
