Ingredients
  

For the Roll-Ups
  • 8 slices White Sandwich Bread Soft texture helps in easy rolling; use fresh bread for the best results.
  • 4 tablespoons Butter Melted; can be substituted with margarine for a dairy-free option.
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar Provides sweetness and a hint of caramel flavor; granulated sugar works as a substitute.
  • 2 tablespoons Ground Cinnamon The star flavor that adds warmth and spice.
For the Egg Mixture
  • 4 large Eggs Bind the roll-ups and create a custardy coating; flax eggs can serve as a vegan alternative.
  • 1 cup Milk Enhances fluidity and adds richness; almond milk or oat milk can substitute for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Adds depth of flavor; can be omitted or swapped for almond extract.

Equipment

  • skillet
  • Rolling Pin
  • Shallow bowl

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups
  1. Trim the crusts off your slices of white sandwich bread and flatten each slice gently with a rolling pin until they are about ¼ inch thick.
  2. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon until well mixed. Spread this mixture evenly over each flattened bread slice.
  3. Roll each slice of cinnamon-covered bread tightly from one end to the other, sealing the edges to hold the shape. Place each roll seam-side down on a plate.
  4. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, the remaining cinnamon, and vanilla extract until frothy. Set this next to your skillet.
  5. Preheat the skillet and add a little butter, letting it melt and coat the bottom.
  6. Dip each roll gently into the egg mixture, then place seam-side down in the skillet.
  7. Cook the roll-ups for about 2-3 minutes until golden, rotating for even browning.
