Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups

Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups are buttery, cinnamon-sugar bread rolls dipped in vanilla egg batter and pan-fried until crisp—perfect with maple syrup or cream cheese glaze.

Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices sandwich bread crusts removed
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon butter for frying
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar + 1 teaspoon cinnamon for rolling
  • Maple syrup or cream cheese glaze for drizzling

Instructions
 

  • Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin or spoon. Spread softened butter over each slice.
  • Mix ¼ cup sugar with 1 tsp cinnamon. Sprinkle over buttered bread. Roll tightly and press to seal.
  • Whisk eggs, milk, and vanilla in a shallow dish until smooth and slightly frothy.
  • Heat 1 tbsp butter in a skillet over medium heat. Quickly dip each roll in the batter, coat all sides, then fry 2–3 minutes per side until golden.
  • Roll warm roll-ups in extra cinnamon sugar. Serve with maple syrup or cream cheese glaze.
