Ingredients
Scale
- 12 Hawaiian rolls
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Butter, for cooking
- Optional toppings: maple syrup, fresh fruits, whipped cream, powdered sugar
Instructions
- Start by slicing each Hawaiian roll in half horizontally.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until smooth.
- Dip each roll half into the custard mixture, soaking for about 30 seconds on each side.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Place the soaked rolls cut-side down in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden brown, then flip to cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Continue cooking until all rolls are done, adding more butter as needed for cooking.
- Keep the finished French toast warm in a low oven until you’re ready to serve.
- Plate with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
Notes
Use day-old Hawaiian rolls for better absorption of the custard. You can substitute heavy cream with half-and-half for a lighter option.
