Ingredients
Scale
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
- 4 tbsp butter, softened
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Gently compress each bread slice using a rolling pin to create a uniform, thin surface.
- Apply a delicate layer of softened butter across the entire bread slice.
- Combine ground cinnamon and granulated sugar in a small mixing container, then generously dust the buttered bread surface.
- Carefully roll each slice into a compact cylinder, ensuring a tight and secure configuration.
- Prepare an egg mixture by vigorously whisking eggs, milk, and aromatic vanilla extract in a wide, shallow container.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat and melt butter to create a smooth cooking surface.
- Thoroughly immerse each rolled bread cylinder into the egg mixture, ensuring complete and even coating on all exterior surfaces.
- Transfer the egg-coated rolls to the heated skillet, rotating periodically to achieve a uniform golden-brown exterior, approximately 2-3 minutes total cooking time.
- Present the crispy rolls immediately while warm, elegantly dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with sweet glaze for enhanced flavor and visual appeal.
Notes
- Use day-old bread for better rolling and less moisture, preventing soggy texture.
- Softly press bread when rolling to avoid tearing and ensure tight, compact rolls.
- Try whole wheat or gluten-free bread for dietary alternatives and diverse nutrition.
- Reduce sugar content by using alternatives like stevia or monk fruit sweetener for a lower-calorie version.
