Hawaiian Roll French Toast is a soft, buttery, and sweet twist on the classic breakfast favorite. The fluffy rolls soak up a rich vanilla-cinnamon custard and cook to golden perfection. Topped with fresh fruit, syrup, or whipped cream, this dish is perfect for brunch or a special morning treat.
Ingredients
12 Hawaiian Rolls (whole or halved)
3 large eggs
3/4 cup whole milk (or half-and-half for a richer texture)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
Butter or oil for cooking
Optional toppings: Maple syrup, fresh fruit, whipped cream, powdered sugar, coconut flakes, chopped nuts
Instructions
- Prepare the Custard: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, salt, and sugar until well combined.
- Preheat the Skillet: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Add butter and oil to coat the surface evenly.
- Dip the Rolls: Quickly dip each Hawaiian roll into the custard mixture, ensuring all sides are coated. Avoid over-soaking.
- Cook the French Toast: Place the coated rolls on the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Flip carefully for even cooking.
- Serve and Enjoy: Transfer to a plate, add your favorite toppings, and serve warm.
