Ingredients
Scale
Primary Ingredients:
- 10 slices white sandwich bread
- 3 large eggs
Seasoning and Sweeteners:
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Liquid and Fat Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon milk
Instructions
- Cut off bread crusts and gently press each slice flat with a rolling pin until thin and uniform.
- Combine 3 tablespoons melted butter, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon in a small mixing bowl.
- Spread the butter-sugar-cinnamon mixture across each bread slice, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent spillage.
- Carefully roll each slice tightly, pressing the edges to seal the filling inside the roll.
- Whisk 3 large eggs, 1 tablespoon milk, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ½ teaspoon vanilla extract in a shallow bowl until fully blended.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat and add 2-3 tablespoons butter to create a smooth cooking surface.
- Dunk each prepared roll into the egg mixture, ensuring complete coating on all sides.
- Place each roll seam-side down in the hot skillet, allowing it to sizzle and brown.
- Cook for 2-3 minutes, rotating the rolls to achieve an even golden-brown color on all surfaces.
Notes
- Remove bread crusts carefully to ensure neat, even roll-ups.
- Press bread slices flat with steady, even pressure from rolling pin to create thin, uniform base.
- Seal roll edges gently but firmly to prevent filling from leaking during cooking.
- When dipping rolls in egg mixture, let excess drip off to prevent soggy texture and ensure crisp exterior.
