Ingredients You’ll Need
For the French Toast Bites:
1 loaf pre-made cinnamon rolls (with icing included)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup whole milk (or almond milk for a lighter option)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Dash of ground cinnamon
Butter or cooking spray for greasing the pan
For Serving:
Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)
Maple syrup or caramel sauce (optional)
Fresh berries or whipped cream (optional)
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare the Cinnamon Rolls
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Unroll the cinnamon roll dough and separate each roll into smaller bite-sized pieces. If the rolls come pre-cut, simply break them apart further.
2. Make the Egg Mixture
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and a dash of cinnamon until well combined.
3. Dip the Bites
Working in batches, dip each piece of cinnamon roll dough into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated. Let any excess drip off before placing it in a greased baking dish.
4. Bake Until Golden
Arrange the dipped cinnamon roll bites in the prepared baking dish, leaving space between each bite for even browning. Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed up.
5. Drizzle with Icing
While the bites are still warm, drizzle the included cinnamon roll icing over the top for added sweetness. For an extra touch, sprinkle powdered sugar or serve with maple syrup, caramel sauce, or fresh berries.
