Ingredients
  

For the Roll-Ups
  • 10 slices White Sandwich Bread Fresh, soft bread makes rolling easier and helps prevent tearing.
  • 1/4 cup Butter (melted) Adds richness; for a dairy-free option, substitute with margarine.
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar Gives a sweet, deep flavor; white sugar can be swapped but will change the taste.
  • 1 tablespoon Ground Cinnamon Essential spice that brings warmth; adjust according to your preference.
For the Egg Mixture
  • 3 large Eggs Binds the mixture; feel free to use an egg substitute for a vegan version.
  • 1/2 cup Milk Adds creaminess; you can replace it with dairy-free milk for a lighter option.
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Enhances the cinnamon flavor, making it even more delightful.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Boosts overall flavor; almond extract could be an exciting alternative.
For Cooking
  • 1 tablespoon Butter for Frying Ensures the roll-ups brown nicely; oil can be used for a healthier choice.

Equipment

  • non-stick skillet
  • Rolling Pin
  • Shallow bowl
  • sharp knife

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Begin by removing the crusts from 10 slices of white sandwich bread with a sharp knife. Flatten each slice using a rolling pin until they are about ¼ inch thick.
  2. In a small bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well blended and spread an even layer on each flattened bread slice.
  3. Carefully roll up each bread slice, sealing the edges to keep the filling inside. Arrange seam-side down on a plate.
  4. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the large eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a generous pat of butter.
  6. Dip each roll in the egg mixture and place seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  7. Once golden brown, transfer to a serving plate and drizzle with maple syrup or sprinkle with powdered sugar.
