French Toast Roll Ups 

These bite‑sized French Toast Roll Ups are a playful take on classic French toast thin slices of bread rolled around a sweet butter‑cinnamon layer, pan fried until golden, then dusted with cinnamon sugar. They’re fun to make, even easier to eat, and especially popular among kids and brunch lovers alike 

Full Recipe:

Ingredients

• For the butter cinnamon spread

  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted

  • 3 Tbsp granulated sugar

  • 2 Tbsp brown sugar

  • 2 large eggs

• Bread and cooking

  • 8 slices soft white bread, crusts removed

  • ~3 Tbsp unsalted butter for sautéing

Directions

1. Make the cinnamon butter spread:
   Melt 3 Tbsp unsalted butter. Stir in 3 Tbsp granulated sugar, 2 Tbsp brown sugar, and 1 Tbsp cinnamon until smooth. Set aside

2. Prepare the egg dip and coating sugar:
   In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. In another bowl, combine 2 Tbsp granulated sugar with 2 tsp cinnamon. Set both aside 

3. Prep the bread:
   Trim crusts from each bread slice. Using a rolling pin, roll each slice out flat to about 1/8‑inch thickness

4. Assemble roll ups:
   Spread each flattened slice with the cinnamon-butter mixture. Roll up tightly and set aside

5. Cook the rolls:
   In a large nonstick skillet, melt ~3 Tbsp butter over medium heat (use 2 Tbsp if cooking in batches). Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture and place seam-side down in the pan. Sauté 1–2 minutes per side, until golden and slightly crisp 

6. Finish coating:
   Transfer cooked roll ups to a surface and gently sprinkle each with the cinnamon-sugar mixture

7. Serve immediately:
   Enjoy while warm, with optional maple syrup for dipping
