Cinnamon French Toast Roll-Ups

CINNAMON FRENCH TOAST ROLL-UPS
Cream Cheese Topping
1-1/2 Tbsp. butter, room temperature
4 Tbsp. cream cheese
2-1/2 Tbsp. powdered sugar
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Cinnamon Filling
6 Tbsp. butter, room temperature
4 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Tbsp. cinnamon powder

Egg Mixture
1 egg
3 Tbsp. milk

Coating
1/4 c. white sugar)
2 tsp. cinnamon powder
Instructions
  • Combine all ingredients for the cream cheese topping together and mix thoroughly, and set aside.
  • Repeat this step for the cinnamon filling.
  • Prepare the egg mixture by slightly beating the egg and adding milk to it.  Mix well.
  • Combine white sugar and cinnamon powder in a plate and set aside.
  • Remove crusts from the white bread slices and with the help of a rolling pin, roll up the bread flat. 
  • Make sure the ends are rolled properly as they tent to puff up again later.
  • When that happens, your roll up won't stay together properly.
  • Spread 1/2 to 3/4 Tbsp. worth of cinnamon filling onto the bread and roll up.
  • You do not need anything to help this stick together as the filing will do that for you.
  • In a non-stick pan, heat a little butter on a low to medium heat.
  • Dip the roll ups into the egg mixture and place on the frying pan.
  • We do about 4 to 5 at a time depending on the size of the pan.
  • Keep turning the French toast every 30 to 45 seconds or until slightly golden brown on one side.
  • Remove the pan when every side is down (should take you 2 to 3 minutes at most) and immediately put in the coating mixture prepared earlier.
  • Serve with cream cheese glaze as a topping or for dipping.
