Ingredients
12 Hawaiian rolls
4 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
Butter or oil for cooking
Maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruit for serving (optional)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Slice each Hawaiian roll in half.
- Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease with butter or oil.
- Dip each roll half into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for a few seconds on each side.
- Place the soaked roll halves onto the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Remove from the skillet and repeat with the remaining roll halves, adding more butter or oil as needed.
- Serve the French toast warm with maple syrup, powdered sugar, and fresh fruit, if desired.
Notes
For a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk and heavy cream with non-dairy alternatives like almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk.
Ensure the skillet is at the right temperature to prevent sogginess and achieve a crispy exterior.
The egg mixture can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
