Hawaiian Roll French Toast
Hawaiian Roll French Toast is a delightful twist on the classic breakfast dish, using sweet and fluffy Hawaiian rolls to create a rich and indulgent meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 12 Hawaiian sweet rolls (e.g., King’s Hawaiian)
- 3 large eggs
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for cooking)
- Optional toppings: powdered sugar, maple syrup, fresh berries
Instructions
- Prepare the Rolls:
- Slice each Hawaiian roll in half horizontally to create two pieces per roll.
- Make the Custard Mixture:
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until well combined.
- Preheat the Skillet:
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a small amount of butter to coat the surface.
- Dip the Rolls:
- Working in batches, dip each roll half into the custard mixture, ensuring both sides are coated. Allow any excess to drip off.
- Cook the French Toast:
- Place the dipped rolls onto the preheated skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
- Add more butter to the skillet as needed for subsequent batches.
- Serve:
- Transfer the cooked French toast to serving plates.
- Top with powdered sugar, maple syrup, and fresh berries if desired.
Notes
- Avoid Over-Soaking:Â Dip the rolls briefly in the custard to prevent them from becoming too soggy.
- Keep Warm: If preparing in batches, keep the cooked French toast warm in a 200°F (93°C) oven until ready to serve.
- Variations:Â Consider stuffing the rolls with cream cheese and jam for added flavor.
