Description: A tasty breakfast treat that combines the flavors of cinnamon rolls and French toast in a quick, easy-to-make roll-up.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 10 slices white sandwich bread

  • 3 tablespoons melted butter

  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar

  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

  • 3 large eggs

  • 1 tablespoon milk

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 23 tablespoons butter (for frying)

Instructions

 

  • Remove the crusts from the bread slices. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice evenly.

  • In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cinnamon.

  • Spread this cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over each flattened bread slice, leaving a small border around the edges.

  • Roll each slice tightly and press the edges gently to seal.

  • In a shallow bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and vanilla extract until combined.

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat and add butter for cooking.

  • Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, coating it well, then place it seam-side down in the skillet.

  • Cook the roll-ups for about 2-3 minutes total, turning occasionally to brown all sides evenly.

Notes

Details:

  • Use soft, fresh bread for easier rolling.

  • Avoid soaking the bread too long in the egg mixture to prevent sogginess.

  • Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning.

  • These roll-ups can be prepared in advance and reheated before serving.

  • They freeze well for up to one month.
