Description
Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites are a delightful and quick breakfast or brunch option combining the sweetness of cinnamon rolls with the fluffy texture of French toast.
Ingredients
- 1 can refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with included icing or glaze)
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Butter for greasing the skillet
- Optional toppings: maple syrup, cream cheese glaze, powdered sugar, or whipped cream
Instructions
- Open the can of cinnamon rolls and separate each roll. Cut each into quarters or smaller bite-sized pieces.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
- Gently toss the cinnamon roll pieces in the egg mixture until they’re evenly coated but not soggy.
- Heat a skillet or nonstick pan over medium heat and add a small amount of butter. Once melted, add the soaked cinnamon roll pieces in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, turning often, until golden brown and cooked through.
- Stack the warm French toast bites on a serving plate. Drizzle with the included icing, warm maple syrup, or cream cheese glaze.
- Enjoy while warm, optionally topped with powdered sugar or a dollop of whipped cream for extra sweetness.
Notes
- Be gentle when tossing the cinnamon roll pieces to avoid breaking them apart.
- Ensure the skillet isn’t overcrowded during cooking to prevent uneven cooking.
- Use the included icing or prepare your favorite glaze to customize the flavor.
