Cinnamon Toast

[baranduin.livejournal.com]

Just a homely recipe for making cinnamon toast the way I do it. I was feeling poorly the other night and a couple of slices of cinnamon toast was just right :-)

- Get your bread. Whatever kind, I usually use some kind of white bread.

- Toast your bread. While it's in the toaster, set your oven to broil. If you don't toast it first, the bottom part of the bread will remain soft, which can be nice itself but I usually toast it first to a light golden brown.

- Butter your toast.

- Sprinkle your toast with some cinnamon (however much you like) and some sugar. I've always used white sugar and usually use a heaping teaspoon on each slice -- it depends on your taste and how large the slice of toast is.

- Pop the toast under the broiler and keep an eye on it. It'll only take a minute or two until the mixture melts on top and makes a nice crackly topping.

Very nice with a cup of tea or cocoa or whatever you like.

OMG that sounds heavenly!!! I don't think I have a broiler, though. Is that just when you switch your oven over to "broil" so that the heat comes from the top? But yum!!

If you have an oven, you probably have a broiler. Just like you say -- turn the over to "broil" :-) And watch it very carefully because it will brown up very fast and go from perfect to burned even quicker. But it's yummy.
