What are French Toast Roll-Ups
French Toast Roll-Ups is a delightful, creative, and utterly scrumptious way to enjoy your morning meal. French Toast Roll-Ups are a delicious and creative twist on traditional French toast. They are made by rolling slices of bread around various fillings, dipping them in an egg mixture, and then cooking them until they’re golden and crispy.
The basic process of Nutella french toast roll-ups involves flattening a slice of bread, spreading a filling (such as cream cheese, Nutella, peanut butter, fruit preserves, or sliced fruits) onto the bread, rolling it up like a burrito, dipping it in an egg mixture (which is often flavoured with vanilla and cinnamon), and then cooking the roll-ups on a skillet until they’re nicely browned on all sides.
After cooking, the roll-ups are often rolled in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon to add a sweet and slightly spiced coating. They can be served warm, sometimes drizzled with maple syrup, dusted with powdered sugar, or paired with fresh fruits for added flavour and texture.
French Toast Roll-Ups are versatile and allow for a wide range of creative fillings and toppings, making them a popular choice for breakfast, brunch, or dessert.
Ingredients needed
How to make Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups
Whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon in a bowl.
Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread.
Spread a layer of Nutella onto each slice of flattened bread. Roll up each slice of bread tightly, with the Nutella on the inside.
Dip each Nutella-filled roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s coated evenly.
In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the dipped roll-ups in the skillet and cook until they are golden brown on all sides. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
In a separate bowl, mix the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon.
While the roll-ups are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture to coat them evenly.
Serve the Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups warm. Consider serving with fresh berries or sliced bananas for a fruity twist. Enjoy your delicious Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups!
Tips & Suggestions
Choose the Right Bread: Use slices of bread that are fresh but not too soft. Slightly stale bread works well because it’s less likely to become too soggy when dipped in the egg mixture.
Flatten the Bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread. This makes the bread more pliable and easier to roll without tearing.
Pick a Filling: Choose a delicious filling that complements the flavours of French toast. Popular options include Nutella, cream cheese, fruit preserves, peanut butter, and sliced fruits.
Spread Evenly: Spread your chosen filling evenly on each slice of bread, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent the filling from oozing out while cooking.
Roll Tightly: Roll up the bread tightly around the filling, similar to how you would roll a burrito. A tight roll will help prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
Control Egg Soaking Time: Dip the roll-ups into the egg mixture just long enough for them to absorb some of the liquid without becoming too soggy. A few seconds on each side should suffice.
Use Medium Heat: When cooking the roll-ups on the skillet, use medium heat. This allows the roll-ups to cook evenly and develop a golden-brown crust without burning.
Flip Carefully: Gently flip the roll-ups using a spatula to ensure they cook evenly on all sides. Be cautious not to press down too hard and squeeze out the filling.
Cinnamon Sugar Coating: Rolling the cooked roll-ups in a cinnamon sugar mixture adds a delightful sweetness and texture. Coat them while they are still warm so the sugar mixture sticks well.
Serve Warm: French Toast Roll-Ups are best enjoyed while warm and crisp. Serve them immediately to capture their fresh-off-the-skillet goodness.
Get Creative: Experiment with different fillings such as fruits, or savoury options like cheese or cream cheese.
Garnish and Enjoy: Once your roll-ups are ready, consider garnishing with powdered sugar, fresh fruit, maple syrup, whipped cream, or any other toppings you like.
