Finnish Cinnamon Toast Recipes

Steps:

• Use a toaster to toast the bread to desired darkness. Spread butter or margarine onto one side of each slice. In a cup or small bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle generously over hot buttered toast.

Steps:

• Dissolve yeast in very warm water, about 110 to 115 degrees. Bring milk, margarine, 1/2 cup sugar and salt just to boiling over medium-low heat; cool. Stir in yeast mixture. Add eggs and 9 cups flour. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 7 to 10 minutes, adding additional flour if sticky; let rise until double in bulk. Form into 6 loaves, about 8 inches long; let rise for one hour. Arrange on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes; cool. Slice bread 1/2-inch thick. Mix together remaining sugar and cinnamon; dip each slice into sugar mixture. Return to baking sheet and bake until crisp and golden, turning occasionally. Store in a paper bag. To serve, butter several slices and place in a bowl; top with hot milk. Tip: Sprinkle a few drops of hot water on your forearm...if it doesn't feel too hot or too cold, it's just the right temperature for dissolving yeast.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the sugar, cinnamon and salt.
• Melt some butter in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium-low; you'll want enough to lightly coat the bottom of the skillet when melted. When bubbling, add as many bread slices as will fit. Swirl the bread around to absorb the butter, adding more butter if the pan is dry. Cook until light golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes, adjusting the heat as needed to avoid burning.
• Add another pat of butter, flip the bread and swirl to coat the other side in butter, gently pressing the bread to pick up any browned bits. Sprinkle the toasted tops edge to edge with a thin layer of the cinnamon sugar. Cook until the underside is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes, adding more butter and adjusting temperature if the pan is dry or the toast is burning.
• Flip and cook until the sugar sizzles and starts to melt, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a plate, sugar side up. (If any melted sugar sticks to the pan, gently swipe the bread over it to pick it up.) Sprinkle toasts with more cinnamon sugar. Wipe skillet and repeat with any remaining bread.

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, beat the egg, milk, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg. Add bread one slice at time, and soak both sides. , Melt butter on a griddle over medium heat; toast bread until golden brown on both sides and cooked through. Serve with syrup.

Steps:

• Thoroughly beat together eggs, cinnamon, vanilla, sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until mixed well. Add a pinch of salt if desired.
• Add milk and mix again.
• Place a small pat of butter in a large nonstick skillet on medium low heat. Once butter has melted dip bread into the egg/milk mixture. Just do a quick dip to coat the bread. Place bread into the pan. I usually work with three slices at a time.
• Place another small pat of butter in the pan. Once the butter has melted flip the bread over. This allows both sides of the bread to get that yummy buttery flavor.
• Continue to cook until both sides are browned nicely. Place finished slices in the oven while you cook the rest.
• Beat the mixture each time before dipping the bread. This brings the cinnamon up from the bottom of the bowl.
