This is a popular dessert or breakfast item we have during Christmas time in Portugal. Some call it "rabanadas" and others "fatias douradas" which means golden slices. They are delicious specially immediately after fried.

- 2 cups warm milk + 1/2 cup warm water shopping list
- 1/2 tsp powdered cinnamon shopping list
- 4 small eggs, beaten shopping list
- 1 cup suger mixed with 1 tbsp powdered cinnamon shopping list
How to make it
- Mix warm milk, water and 1/2 tsp cinnamon.
- Dip each slice of bread into the milk and water mix. Then into the beaten eggs and ladle on a big plate.
- Pour about 2 inches of vegetable or peanut oil into a frying pan.
