Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups: The Ultimate Breakfast Indulgence! 🍞✨


1. Prep the Cinnamon Filling

  • Mix brown sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.

  • Cut crusts off bread and flatten slightly with a rolling pin.

  • Spread each slice with softened butter, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.

2. Roll ‘Em Up!

  • Roll each slice tightly (like a mini cinnamon roll).

  • Optional: Add raisins or nuts before rolling.

3. Make the French Toast Custard

  • Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon in a shallow bowl.

4. Cook to Golden Perfection

  • Heat a buttered skillet over medium heat.

  • Dip each roll-up in the custard mixture, letting excess drip off.

  • Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown.

5. Drizzle & Devour!

  • Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla for the glaze.

  • Drizzle over warm roll-ups and serve immediately.


Pro Tips for the Best Roll-Ups

🍞 Use fresh, soft bread—stale bread cracks when rolling.
🍯 Extra gooey? Brush rolls with maple syrup before adding cinnamon sugar.
πŸ“ Fruity twist: Spread raspberry jam inside before rolling.


Serving Ideas

πŸŽ‰ Holiday breakfast: Perfect for Christmas or Easter morning!
🍦 Dessert mode: Top with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce.
