Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups
  1. Start by trimming the crusts off each slice of white sandwich bread to create a clean edge. Then, using a rolling pin, flatten each slice until it’s about ¼ inch thick.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
  3. Take each buttered and cinnamon-covered bread slice and roll it tightly from one end to the other, forming a compact roll.
  4. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is uniform and frothy.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 2-3 tablespoons of butter. Dip each roll into the egg mixture, ensuring each side is well-coated.
  6. Once cooked to a beautiful golden brown, transfer them to a serving plate. Drizzle with maple syrup or dust with powdered sugar.
