1

Slice the bread into pieces about 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick.

Heat the milk with the lemon peel, cinnamon stick, and honey until it comes to a boil.
3

Let the milk cool slightly. Meanwhile, start heating the oil.
4

Dip the bread slices in the milk, then coat them in beaten egg and fry. Place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil while they cool a bit.
