Description
These Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites combine the best of both worlds: sweet, fluffy cinnamon rolls and crispy, golden French toast! A quick and easy breakfast or brunch idea that’s perfect for any morning.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls, cut into quarters
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- Powdered sugar or icing (for topping)
Instructions
- Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Coat the Cinnamon Roll Pieces: Dip each cinnamon roll quarter into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Cook the Bites: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the butter. Place the coated cinnamon roll pieces onto the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Drizzle with icing from the cinnamon roll package or dust with powdered sugar. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- If you prefer a dairy-free version, swap the milk for almond milk and use a dairy-free butter substitute.
- Feel free to add a sprinkle of fresh fruit or whipped cream for an extra indulgent breakfast!
- For a fun twist, try adding a dash of nutmeg to the batter for a warm, spiced flavor.
