Ingredients

• 8 slices Day-old bread
• 2 cups Milk
• 3 Eggs
• 1/2 cup Sugar
• 2 tsp Cinnamon
• 3 tbsp Butter
• 1/4 cup Port wine

Steps

1. Warm the milk with a cinnamon stick and a spoonful of sugar; cool slightly.
2. Soak the bread slices 2 minutes per side — saturated but not falling apart.
3. Dip in beaten egg, letting the excess drip off.
4. Fry in butter over medium heat 3 minutes per side until deeply golden and crisp.
5. Toss the hot slices in cinnamon sugar; the sugar melts into a crackling crust.
6. Serve warm with a drizzle of port syrup; Christmas morning in Portugal tastes like this.
