→ For Cooking
09 -
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, for frying
# Step-by-Step Instructions:
01 -
Remove crusts from bread slices and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice evenly.
02 -
In a small bowl, combine melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of cinnamon until smooth.
03 -
Spread a thin layer of the cinnamon mixture over each bread slice, leaving a small border around the edges. Roll up each slice tightly, sealing the edge with light pressure.
04 -
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and vanilla extract until fully combined.
05 -
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add butter. Dip each roll-up into the egg batter, then place seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, rotating to brown all sides evenly.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Avoid overfilling to prevent leaks during cooking.
02 -
Use fresh, soft bread for easy rolling and best texture.
03 -
Keep the seam side down when first placing the rolls in the pan to help seal them.
04 -
Maintain medium heat to achieve a golden, crisp exterior without burning.
05 -
These roll-ups can be frozen for up to 1 month and reheated when needed.
