Ingredients

Scale

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

For the Egg Mixture:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cooking:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for frying)

Optional Toppings:

  • Powdered sugar
  • Maple syrup
  • 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

  • You can add a bit of cream cheese or Nutella inside the roll-ups for an even more indulgent treat!
  • Feel free to experiment with different types of bread, like brioche or challah, for an even richer taste.
