In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) until well combined.

Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook for 5-7 minutes, flipping occasionally, until crispy. Remove bacon from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Keep warm.

Add 1 tablespoon of butter or cooking oil to the same skillet/griddle. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 10-15 seconds per side. Don't let it get too soggy.
