Always mix cinammon in your eggs before adding anything else for an even mix.

Always love giving this little tip many people haven't yet realized but this goes for french toast or any other time you want a spice well mixed into a batter. Add the annoying spice and whip it into the egg before incorporating anything else.
Sometimes it is also right to first mix the dry ingredients and then add them to the wet ones.
First mix the dry ingredients, then add a small amount of liquid and mix that into a paste. This paste now mixes much more easily into the rest of the liquid.
With only a small amount of liquid at first, there's not room for the dry ingredients to form dry clumps that just get pushed around in a sea of thin liquid. This lets you get every particle wet, so you overcome the surface tension or whatever issue that causes dry lumps to keep existing.
