People think is sounds weird but those that are willing to taste end up eating more. In my opinion, it is a cross between a donut, and a pastry.
[ingredients title=”Ingredients”]
- 2 – Eggs
- 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1 tbsp Sugar
- 2 tsp Vanilla
- A few sprinkles of Cinnamon
- 1 box of original Captain Crunch Cereal
- 1 loaf day old sliced bread, french bread, or fresh left out over night
- 1 stick of butter
[/ingredients]
[directions title=”Directions”]
- Place the bread out 6-12 hours before starting to get hard.
- Mix the first 4 ingredients together to make the egg wash.
- Pour 2 cups of cereal into zip lock bag and smash in to small pieces (leave larger pieces in it).
- Heat your skillet to medium heat and melt 1 pat of butter.
- Dip slice of bread into the egg wash and let soak a minute or so, then place the soaked slice of bread into the breading mix (crunched captain crunch)and coat all sides.
- Place in the pan and heat on both sides.
- The sugar will caramalize and the cereal will brown. That’s when you know it is done.

Notes:
This dish does not need syrup. It could be topped with whipped cream and fresh berries if in season.
I found that in the electric skillet it takes about 1 stick of butter to 6 pieces of toast.
