Ingredients
Method
Step 1: Flatten and Fill the Bread
- Trim crusts from bread slices.
- Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice.
- In a small bowl, mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
- Spread a small amount on each bread slice and roll up tightly.
Step 2: Prepare Cinnamon Sugar
- In a shallow dish, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon. Set aside.
Step 3: Make French Toast Batter
- Whisk eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla together in a bowl.
Step 4: Dip and Cook
- Dip each roll up into the egg mixture, coating all sides.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp butter.
- Cook roll ups seam-side down first, turning to brown all sides (~2–3 minutes each).
Step 5: Coat in Cinnamon Sugar
- Immediately after cooking, roll warm French toast sticks in cinnamon sugar.
- Repeat with remaining roll ups, adding butter to the pan as needed.
