Description

Discover the perfect blend of cinnamon roll sweetness and French toast decadence with these Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups. A quick and customizable recipe, perfect for brunch or an indulgent breakfast treat.

 


Ingredients

  • 8 slices of white bread, crusts removed
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (for rolling)
  • Maple syrup (for serving)

Instructions

  • In a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
  • Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin. Spread the cream cheese mixture onto one side of each slice.
  • Roll each slice tightly to seal the filling inside.
  • In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
  • Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, coating all sides.
  • Cook roll-ups in the skillet for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown.
  • Combine granulated sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Roll cooked roll-ups in this mixture while warm.
  • Serve immediately with maple syrup for dipping.

Notes

  • For variation, use Nutella, peanut butter, or jam instead of cream cheese.
  • Best when served fresh but can be stored for up to 3 days in an airtight container.
  • Adjust spices like cardamom or allspice for added flavor complexity.
