Remove the crusts from the bread. Layer the bread so it is stacked two slices high. Fill in sides and ends with small slices of bread.
Beat eggs and milk and pour over the bread. Bake for 30-35 minutes at 350 degrees. Take out of the oven and drizzle with syrup. Return to the oven and broil the french toast for just a minute or two. Be careful to not burn it. When you serve it, flip your slice over so the sugar and cinnamon mixture is on the top.
