How To Make toddler french toast sticks

  • Step 1
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice bread slices into thirds. In large bowl mix all ingredients except sliced bread. Spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray.
  • Step 2
    Dip bread pieces, one by one, in the batter until coated and then place on the cookie sheet. Bake for 30 minutes turning over half-way through to ensure even cooking on both sides. When done, remove to cooling rack. Serve or freeze.
  • Step 3
    TO FREEZE: Allow to cool on cooling rack completely or place on a cool cookie sheet and place in freezer for 10-15 minutes or until partially frozen (flash freezing). Place in Ziploc freezer bag and place in freezer until ready to use. TO SERVE: microwave 30-45 seconds.
