Ingredients
Scale
- 10 slices sandwich bread
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon, divided
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Roll each slice of bread flat with a rolling pin. Cut off crusts to make rolling easier.
- In a bowl, mix melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cinnamon into a spreadable paste.
- Spread a layer of cinnamon filling onto each slice of bread, then roll each slice up tightly.
- In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
- Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture and cook in a buttered skillet over medium heat, turning to ensure even browning on all sides.
- Serve warm with powdered sugar or maple syrup, if desired.
Notes
For the best texture, use day-old bread, which absorbs the egg mixture perfectly. Feel free to try variations like cream cheese filling or a drizzle of caramel sauce. These roll-ups can be refrigerated or frozen for quick, on-the-go breakfasts!
