Ingredients
  

Cinnamon Roll French Toast Ingredients
  • 8-10 slices Sourdough Sandwich Bread Crusts removed
  • 2 large Eggs Room temperature
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) Whole Milk
  • 1 tsp (5ml) Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup (100g) Granulated White Sugar Divided
  • 1 tbsp (8g) Ground Cinnamon
  • 4 tbsp (56g) Unsalted Butter Melted and divided
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) Amber Maple Syrup For drizzling

Equipment

  • 1 Rolling Pin Used to flatten sourdough slices.
  • 1 Non-stick skillet Essential for caramelizing sugar without sticking.
  • 1 Pastry Brush For even butter distribution.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Remove crusts from sourdough slices. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice until roughly 1/8 inch thick.
  2. Brush flattened bread with melted butter and sprinkle with a mixture of cinnamon and sugar. Roll tightly into a coil.
Cooking
  1. Whisk eggs, milk, and vanilla. Briefly dip each roll into the custard, ensuring all sides are lightly coated.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the remaining butter. Sear rolls seam-side down first, rotating until the exterior is golden-brown and crispy.
  3. Remove from pan and immediately roll in the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture for a granulated crust.
