Cinnamon Roll French Toast Recipe

American · Breakfast · 18 min total

Transform leftover cinnamon rolls into a decadent breakfast treat. This easy recipe combines the best of both worlds: gooey cinnamon rolls and classic French toast.

Ingredients

• 4 leftover or store-bought cinnamon rolls
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 2 tablespoons butter, for frying
• 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk (for glaze)

Instructions

1. Slice each cinnamon roll in half horizontally to create two thinner rounds.
2. In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon until well combined.
3. Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon butter.
4. Dip each cinnamon roll half into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.
5. Place dipped rolls in the hot skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with remaining butter and rolls.
6. Meanwhile, make the glaze: in a small bowl, mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth.
7. Serve French toast drizzled with cream cheese glaze.

Tips

• Use day-old cinnamon rolls for best texture; they hold up better when dipped.
• Keep cooked French toast warm in a 200°F oven while cooking the rest.
• Add a sprinkle of chopped pecans or walnuts for extra crunch.
