Warm the milk with cinnamon and orange peel for 5 minutes.
Dip the bread slices in the warm milk for 2 minutes so the centers do not stay dry.
Beat the eggs and coat the milk-soaked bread on both sides.
Fry the bread over medium heat for 7 minutes in total, until golden.
Coat with sugar and cinnamon and rest for 10 minutes so the surface turns syrupy.
Plate the torrijas warm or cold.
💡 Tip: Do not soak the bread too long in the milk mixture; it should not fall apart when moved to the pan.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with cinnamon sugar sprinkled on top.
