My mother did that too. With left over pie crust she rolled it out
then buttered it and sprinkled with
sugar and cinnamon. She sometimes added raisins with the crust on
top.

Oh, Dear Alex! What have we come to when we need "the method for
mixing cinnamon and sugar" to make cinnamon toast? Jeez.

When we were in Calgary with Harry and Sam in 2001, Harry took us to
some great food shops. At one of them I bought a jar of orange sugar.
I've since made my own by mixing grated orange rind with sugar and using
it on toast, too. Nice.

I never ate milk toast until I was old enough to make it for myself
and I thought it was very good.

I keep a premixed jar up in the cupboard and make cinnamon toast for
my GS every now and then.

What a great idea! Just regular refined sugar or the bigger grained
stuff (raw/turbinado/demerara)?

That's not right: Andy has a wide array of activities, ranging from
bread-squeezing in grocery stores to creepy leering at waitresses. The
correct retort would have been, "Is there any other kind of complaint you
*can* file?"

They do serve some with cheese but over here, it's mostly just butter
and plain white sugar on a soft milk roll. It's a really simple,
elegant, presentation.
 
its just a totally different taste, not better or worse, more of a
confection than a bread.. if done right the down side of the bread is still
very soft and warm with the crispy crunchy top going towards a confection,
you should triy it if only once, Lee

You'd also need to be careful it doesn't burn your lips... hot sugar
gives a nasty burn.

Thank you! I've undoubtedly eaten dozens of loaves of cinnamon toast,
mostly way-back-when, but never considered this wrinkle. And decided
I couldn't wait any more, so I'm eating a slice now. Wonderful! (Even
on whole wheat bread, though it's a little harder to watch for
caramelization.)

Hmmm... sounds a little like "coffee soup" which was a staple with
scrambled eggs when I was a kid. Slice of bread with sugar
sprinkled** on it. Pour whole milk over it to saturate the bread,
then some coffee to add flavor.

**As a kid, "sprinkled" meant application of about a quarter cup :-)

back in junior high home-ec class they taught us how to make cinnamon
toast by making a cinnamon icing out of butter, confectioner sugar and
cinnamon. Just creaming it together (no recall of proportions)
We toasted the bread in the broiler on one side then spread this mixture
on the other and broiled it until bubbly and brown.
Very good stuff! Gotta watch you don't burn the roof of your mouth
though by biting into it too quickly.

We didn't make our own cinnamon toast but once in a great while Mom would
buy a loaf of cinnamon swirl bread we toasted and buttered up. It was
pretty cheap on swirl, iirc.
