2/3 brown sugar

2 tablespoon cinnamon

Instructions

• The day before place the can of condensed milk (wrapper removed) in a pot of water.

• Cover, bring it to boil then simmer on low for 5-6 hours.

• Allow it to cool completely before opening.

• The next day combine, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, salt, lime zest, dulce de leche, egg, and water. mix to combine, making sure the dulce de leche has completely dissolved. Blending this in a blender maybe even quicker.

• Melt a tablespoon of butter.

• Soak two slices of bread in the mixture and fry in butter until golden on both sides.

• Repeat for all 6 slices using 1 tablespoon of butter for every two slices of bread.

• Take the hot slices of bread and toss in cinnamon sugar.

• Optional place the slices in a 400-degree oven for 5 minutes to get it extra crunchy

• Additionally you can brush with a bit of melted butter on the toast before dipping in the cinnamon sugar if you want a heavier layer of cinnamon sugar coating.
