Strawberry French Toast Roll-Ups

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Bread:
    • Trim the crusts off the bread slices. Using a rolling pin, flatten the bread slices to about half their original thickness. This makes them more pliable for rolling.
  2. Fill and Roll:
    • Spread a thin layer of cream cheese over each bread slice. At one end of each slice, place a small amount of diced strawberries. Sprinkle a little granulated sugar over the strawberries.
    • Carefully roll up the bread from the strawberry end, ensuring the filling stays inside. Press lightly to seal the roll-up.
  3. Mix the Egg Wash:
    • In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
  4. Dip and Cook:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add a little butter.
    • Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, allowing the excess to drip off, and then place it in the hot pan.
    • Cook until golden brown on all sides, turning every 1-2 minutes to ensure even cooking. This usually takes about 4-6 minutes per batch.
  5. Serve:
    • Transfer the cooked roll-ups to a serving plate. Dust with confectioners’ sugar, if desired, and serve with maple syrup for dipping.

Tips:

  • Variations: You can customize the filling by adding different fruits, such as blueberries or thinly sliced bananas, or by mixing a little cinnamon into the cream cheese.
  • Make Ahead: These roll-ups can be prepared the night before, stored in the refrigerator, and then dipped in the egg mixture and cooked in the morning. However, they are best when served fresh.
  • Serving Suggestion: For an extra indulgent breakfast, serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of chocolate sauce.

Enjoy your delicious Strawberry French Toast Roll-Ups, a sweet start to any day!
