Ingredients

Scale
  1. For the Roll-Ups:
    • 6 slices of sandwich bread (white or whole wheat, crusts removed)
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
    • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  2. For the Egg Mixture:
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1/4 cup milk
    • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  3. For Cooking:
    • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for frying)
  4. Optional Toppings:
    1. Powdered sugar
    2. Maple syrup
    3. Whipped cream

Instructions

  • Prepare the Bread Rolls:
    Flatten each slice of bread using a rolling pin to create a thin, even surface. In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon. Spread a thin layer of softened butter over one side of each bread slice, then sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Roll the bread tightly into a log shape and set aside.
  • Make the Egg Mixture:
    In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
  • Coat the Roll-Ups:
    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Dip each bread roll into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s evenly coated but not overly soaked.
  • Cook the Roll-Ups:
    Place the coated rolls into the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy. Work in batches if necessary, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
  • Serve:
    Transfer the cooked roll-ups to a serving plate. Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup for a sweet finish. Add whipped cream if desired for an extra indulgent touch.

Notes

  • For an extra flavor kick, you can add a pinch of nutmeg to the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
  • For a vegan option, use dairy-free butter and milk alternatives, such as almond milk.
