Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Roll-Ups are a delightful twist on classic French toast. Here’s how you can make them:Ingredients:
- 8 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or brioche work well)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for rolling)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for rolling)
- Butter, for cooking
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread slightly, making it easier to roll up.
- Spread a thin layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each slice of bread.
- Roll up each slice of bread tightly, starting from one end.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined.
- In another shallow dish, mix together the 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a pat of butter to grease the surface.
- Dip each rolled-up slice of bread into the egg mixture, coating it evenly.
- Place the dipped roll-up into the cinnamon sugar mixture, rolling it around to coat all sides evenly.
- Place the coated roll-up onto the preheated skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Repeat with the remaining roll-ups, adding more butter to the skillet or griddle as needed.
- Once all roll-ups are cooked, transfer them to a serving plate.
- Serve the Cinnamon Sugar French Toast Roll-Ups warm with maple syrup for dipping or drizzling.
Enjoy the deliciously sweet and cinnamon-spiced French toast roll-ups as a fun and tasty breakfast or brunch treat!
