Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 8 slices of bread
- 1 cup of sliced strawberries
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup of milk
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons of butter
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Prepare the Bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread to make it easier to roll up later.
- Make the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Coat the Bread: Dip each slice of flattened bread into the egg mixture, making sure it is fully coated on all sides.
- Add Strawberries and Roll: Place sliced strawberries on top of each coated bread slice, then carefully roll up the bread around the strawberries. Secure the ends with toothpicks to keep the rolls intact during cooking.
- Heat the Skillet: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat until it is fully melted and slightly sizzling.
- Cook the Rolls: Place the French toast rolls seam side down in the skillet. Cook them, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and the bread is cooked through.
- Finish and Serve: Remove the toothpicks from the rolls. Dust the French toast rolls with powdered sugar and serve hot for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use white sandwich bread for the best texture and ease of rolling.
- Make sure to flatten the bread slices well to prevent cracking when rolling.
- Be gentle when rolling to avoid squeezing out the strawberry filling.
- Serve immediately for the best taste and to enjoy the crispy texture.
- Optional: Serve with maple syrup or a dollop of whipped cream for extra sweetness.
