Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites Easy and Delicious Dish
Ingredients
- 1 can (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls (8 rolls)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup milk (whole or almond)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional for extra sweetness)
- 1 serving Butter or non-stick spray (for greasing)
- 1 serving Maple syrup, for serving
- 1 serving Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- Open the can of cinnamon rolls and separate them. Cut each roll into quarters and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar (if using) until fully combined.
- Take the quartered cinnamon roll pieces and dip them into the egg mixture, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Allow any excess to drip off.
- Place the coated cinnamon roll pieces into the greased baking dish in a single layer, spreading them out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed. Make sure to check for doneness with a toothpick; it should come out clean.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Open the icing packet that came with the cinnamon rolls and drizzle it over the baked bites while they're still warm.
- For an extra touch, dust with powdered sugar before serving.
- Serve warm with maple syrup on the side for dipping.
💡 Chef's Notes
