– 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions
Creating these delightful Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites is easy if you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Bread: Cut the loaf of challah or brioche into bite-sized cubes, about 1-inch in size.
2. Mix the Custard: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until well combined.
3. Combine Bread and Custard: Gently fold the bread cubes into the custard mixture, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes to soak up the mixture.
4. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with some of the melted butter.
5. Arrange the Bites: Pour the bread mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Drizzle the remaining melted butter over the top.
6. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the custard is set.
7. Prepare the Icing: While the bites are baking, mix the powdered sugar and milk in a small bowl to create a smooth icing (optional).
8. Serve: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before drizzling with icing. Dust with additional cinnamon and sugar if desired.
