Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 4 pre-made cinnamon rolls (about 1 to 1.5 inches each after cut)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)

Glaze

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1–2 tablespoons milk (adjust for desired consistency)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cinnamon Rolls: Cut cinnamon rolls into bite-sized pieces approximately 1 to 1.5 inches wide for easy dipping and even cooking.
  2. Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and fully combined, creating the flavorful French toast batter.
  3. Dip the Cinnamon Roll Pieces: Dip each cinnamon roll bite into the egg mixture, coating all sides evenly without soaking, to maintain a tender but not soggy texture.
  4. Cook the Bites: Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the coated bites and cook in batches, turning occasionally until all sides are golden brown and slightly crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. Prepare the Glaze: While bites cook, mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth and drizzle-able, adjusting thickness by adding more sugar or milk as needed.
  6. Drizzle and Serve: Plate the cooked bites and generously drizzle the glaze on top. Serve warm and enjoy the sweet cinnamon goodness.

Notes

  • Use fresh or refrigerated cinnamon rolls for best soft centers and flaky texture.
  • Dip cinnamon roll pieces just long enough to coat them to avoid sogginess.
  • Cook on medium heat to brown bites evenly without burning.
  • A non-stick skillet or cast iron pan works best for easy flipping and golden crust.
  • Make the glaze while cooking so it remains fresh and drizzly at serving.
