  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large cinnamon rolls (store-bought or homemade)
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup of whole milk or heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Butter or non-stick spray for cooking
  • Optional toppings: powdered sugar, maple syrup, fresh berries

Instructions

  1. Start by cutting the cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces. If using store-bought cinnamon rolls, separate and halve or quarter them based on size for even cooking.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk (or heavy cream), vanilla extract, and cinnamon to create the egg mixture.
  3. Dip each cinnamon roll piece into the egg mixture, ensuring full coverage. Let excess drip off.
  4. Heat a non-stick skillet with butter over medium heat. Cook the coated pieces for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown, or bake on a sheet at 375°F (190°C) for 12-15 minutes until puffed and caramelized.
  5. Serve warm with powdered sugar, maple syrup, or fresh berries for added flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh cinnamon rolls for the best flavor and texture.
  • Increase cooking time or add a splash of butter for crunchier bites.
  • Substitute almond or coconut milk for a dairy-free version.
