Ingredients

8 slices of white bread

4 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
3 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
¼ cup milk
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for frying)
Maple syrup or icing, for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Bread: Trim the crusts off the bread slices. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice into a thin sheet.
Make the Filling: In a small bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly on each slice of bread. Roll each slice tightly into a log.
Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, and granulated sugar.
Coat the Roll-Ups: Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.
Cook the Roll-Ups: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the roll-ups and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Cinnamon Sugar Coating: In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of sugar with 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Roll the cooked roll-ups in the cinnamon sugar mixture while still warm.
Serve: Plate your Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups and drizzle with maple syrup or icing. Enjoy this delightful breakfast treat!
