Take the 4 slices of bread and trim off all the crust; then cut each slice into 3 equal 'sticks'

Combine the white sugar, cinnamon, salt, and purple sugar sprinkles on a plate;

Combine the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl; it may be easier to mix with a whisk to get the eggs mixed well with the other ingredients

Melt 2 tbsp of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat

Once the butter is melted, roll the sticks one at a time in the egg mixture, not allowing them to soak; do this in 2 batches, or however many your skillet will accommodate

Cook sticks about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown

Immediately transfer from pan to plate with sugar mixture and roll until stick is covered.

Serve these sticks with a dipping bowl of maple syrup!
