- 6 slices thick-cut brioche or Texas toast
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter for cooking
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened (for filling)
- 3 tablespoons honey for filling
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract for filling
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Maple syrup or extra honey for serving
Start by mixing the softened butter, honey, and vanilla extract in a small bowl. Blend until it’s smooth and creamy, then set aside.
Cut each slice of bread into 3 thick strips, about 1 inch wide. Be sure to slice each piece lengthwise without cutting all the way through, making a pocket for the filling.
Spoon or pipe about 1 teaspoon of the honey butter filling into each pocket. Spread it evenly.
In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
Dip each stuffed breadstick into the egg mixture, coating all sides. Place them into the heated skillet.
Cook for 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with the rest of the sticks, adding more butter as needed.
Dust with powdered sugar and serve with maple syrup or extra honey for dipping.
How to Serve Honey Butter Stuffed French Toast Sticks
Serve the stuffed French toast sticks warm. They make a great breakfast or brunch dish! Dust with powdered sugar right before serving, and always have some maple syrup or honey ready for dipping.
How to Store Honey Butter Stuffed French Toast Sticks
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge. They are best eaten fresh, but you can reheat them in the microwave or on a skillet.
Tips to Make Honey Butter Stuffed French Toast Sticks
Use day-old bread for better texture.
For extra sweetness, sprinkle some cinnamon sugar on top after cooking!
Feel free to use any bread you like, but thick bread works best.
Variation
Try adding some cream cheese mixed with honey for a richer filling option! You can also add fruits like sliced bananas or strawberries for a fresh touch.
