1 cup Milk 
1 cup All‐Purpose Flour 
5 pieces Eggs 
1/2 cup Sugar 
1 cup Corn Flake broken 
4 tbsp Butter

Procedure -

Remove the crust from the bread slices and cut in half diagonally. Soak the bread in the milk for ‐2‐3 minutes. Dust slices with flour. Shake off excess flour. Lightly beat eggs with sugar. Dip bread slices in egg and then into the corn flake crumbs. In a shallow pan/bratpan heat the butter over medium high heat and fry bread slices until golden brown and crunchy all around. Sprinkle with cinnamon and confectioner's sugar. Other breads such as brioche, baguettes and Texas bread can be substituted for the white bread.
