Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by removing the crusts from your white sandwich bread slices, ensuring a soft consistency for the roll-ups. Using a rolling pin, flatten each slice gently until about ¼ inch thick, making them pliable for rolling.
- In a small bowl, blend together the melted butter, brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons of ground cinnamon. Spread an even layer of this cinnamon filling across each flattened bread slice.
- Carefully roll each slice of bread tightly from one end to the other, sealing the edges by gently pressing them together with your fingers.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the large eggs, milk, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, and vanilla extract until fully combined and frothy.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 2-3 tablespoons of butter. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture and place seam-side down in the hot skillet. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Once the roll-ups are beautifully golden and cooked through, remove them from the skillet and serve warm dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with maple syrup.
