Cut each slice of bread into 3 or 4 strips to create 'sticks'. Set them aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well blended.
In a shallow dish or plate, combine the sugar and ground cinnamon. Mix well and set aside.
Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
Dip each bread stick into the egg mixture, coating all sides lightly but evenly. Let any excess mixture drip off.
Place the coated bread sticks onto the skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Work in batches if necessary.
Once cooked, remove the toast sticks from the skillet and immediately roll them in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
Repeat the process with the remaining bread sticks, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve the Cinnamon Toast Sticks warm with optional dipping sauces like maple syrup, chocolate, or fruit compote. Enjoy!
