Hawaiian Roll French Toast
From McGough's Recipes
Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 cup half and half
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tbsp salted butter, divided
- 1 12 pack @KingsHawaiian Original Sweet Rolls
- 1/4 cup white sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup salted caramel or syrup for dipping
Directions
- In a medium sized bowl, combine eggs, half n half, cinnamon and vanilla and whisk until combined.
- Tear your sweet rolls into individual pieces and submerge them in the French toast batter for about 15-20 seconds but no longer as they will get too soggy.
- Meanwhile, heat a large fry pan over medium heat and melt 2 tablespoon of salted butter.
- Add half of the rolls and cook until golden brown on all 6 sides. Remove them from the pan, add the rest of the butter and the rest of the rolls and repeat the process.
- Once they’re all cooked, you can either serve them right away OR add white sugar and cinnamon to a shallow bowl or dish and stir until combined. oss each one of the cooked French toast sweet rolls in the cinnamon sugar until coated.
- Plate them and serve with salted caramel sauce (or syrup) for dipping.
Notes
Substitutions
- Half n Half - Whole milk also works.
- Cinnamon - Can be swapped with white sugar.
- Salted Butter - Unsalted butter works perfectly just add a pinch of salt.
