Hawaiian Roll French Toast

• servings: 6 servings
• active time: 10 minutes
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

4 large eggs

1/2 cup milk (I use whole milk, but you can use any dairy or non-dairy alternative)

1 Tbsp vanilla extract

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 tsp salt

1/8 tsp nutmeg

2 Tbsp unsalted butter

12 Hawaiian Rolls, (sliced horizontally (I use King's Hawaiian sweet rolls)

Confectioners' sugar, (optional for serving)

Maple syrup, (optional for serving)

Directions

Whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg in a wide, deep bowl.

Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat and brush with 1 Tbsp of the butter.

Working in batches, dip Hawaiian roll halves into egg/milk mixture until saturated and shake off excess liquid before placing rolls on heated griddle.

Cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes on other side.

Remove to a plate and keep warm while you continue cooking the remaining rolls. Add more butter to griddle as needed until all rolls have been dipped and toasted.

Sprinkle powdered sugar over Hawaiian roll french toast and drizzle on maple syrup, if desired, before serving.
