In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a little butter or oil to coat the surface.
Take each slice of bread and dip it into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
In a shallow dish, mix together the crushed macadamia nuts, panko breadcrumbs, and granulated sugar.
After soaking, press each slice of bread into the macadamia nut mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated.
Place the coated bread slices onto the preheated skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove the French toast sticks from the skillet and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining slices.
Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top.
