Let's not just cook—let's create memorable moments! With this unique Captain Crunch French toast recipe, you'll experience the joy of preparing breakfast by blending the comfort of traditional French toast with the sweet, playful crunch of a beloved cereal!
Place the Cap’n Crunch cereal in a zip lock bag and crush it using a rolling pin or your preferred kitchen tool. It's fine if the pieces are not uniform; a mix of large and small pieces works well.
Pour the crushed cereal into a shallow dish.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the eggs, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract.
Next, dip your bread slices into the egg mixture. Ensure that the slices are coated but not overly saturated.
Cover one side of each bread slice with the cereal. You can dip the slice back into the egg mixture if you need to help the cereal adhere.
Place the coated toast on a large baking sheet and bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes or until golden brown and the cereal coating transforms into a crispy, golden shell that encapsulates the bread's soft interior.
Once baked, remove the toast from the oven and let it cool for a minute, then optionally sprinkle with powdered sugar, serve with maple syrup or fruit topping and enjoy!
