Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites

Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites combine the soft, gooey goodness of classic cinnamon rolls with the crispy edges of French toast—all in poppable, bite-sized pieces perfect for dipping and sharing.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 can refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Maple syrup for serving
  • Powdered sugar for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Open the can and set the icing aside. Cut each cinnamon roll into 4 bite-sized pieces, keeping them round to hold their shape when cooked.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.
  • Dip each cinnamon roll piece into the egg mixture, coating it fully. Let the excess drip off before placing it in the skillet.
  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the dipped bites in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd—cook in batches if needed.
  • Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and crisp outside, and cooked through in the center. Remove and set aside.
  • Microwave the reserved icing for about 10 seconds until it’s smooth and pourable.
  • Plate the warm French toast bites, drizzle with icing, sprinkle with powdered sugar (optional), and serve with maple syrup for dipping.
