Careful with the carbs and you can have regular old sugar, occasionally. It’s hard to do it eating bread tho. When I get a cinnamon itch you wouldn’t believe what I sprinkle just cinnamon on. No sugar. At all. Don’t like stevia, equal, saccharin or any other. Not real enamored of real sugar actually. I’ve never had much of it my whole life so I don’t have the _want_ of it. ---

I premix the butter, sugar and cinnamon, sometimes I add canned apple pie slices. ---

Your thread title says white toast when the greatest thing is toasted English Muffins with raisins. ---

At the time I posted the OP I was not sure anyone was still doing this at all, so I picked what I thought was the most common scenario. I agree that variations can improve things, and that having raisins involved sounds delicious. ---

I haven’t made cinnamon toast in ages, but if i did, i would mix the cinnamon with the sugar, and encrust the bread, and heat it enough that the sugar melted just a tiny bit, making it slightly crunchy. ---

My wife, Pepper Mill, just baked pie this weekend, so we got th “pie crust cookies” made of unused crust sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar and briefly baked., I’d never heard of the variation where you put butter on the crust. We’ll have to try that sometime. ---

Not as an adult, but I fully endorse. There’s something special that happens when the cinnamon and sugar get soaked with melted butter. If the toaster can brown the sugar and butter somewhat around the edges, while leaving the center a bit soggy, that’s ideal.
