Looking for a breakfast that’ll make your taste buds dance and your Instagram followers drool? Honey, I’ve got just the thing for you! Let me introduce you to my absolutely divine Stuffed French Toast Roll-Ups with Caramelized Bananas. Trust me, this isn’t your basic breakfast – it’s a game-changer that’ll have your family thinking you secretly enrolled in culinary school!
First things first, let’s gather our ingredients (because running to the store in your PJs isn’t cute):
For the roll-ups:
– 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
– 4 oz cream cheese, softened
– 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 large eggs
– 1/3 cup milk
– Butter for cooking
– Cinnamon sugar for coating
For the caramelized bananas:
– 3 ripe bananas, sliced
– 2 tablespoons butter
– 3 tablespoons brown sugar
– 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Y’all, this recipe is easier than convincing yourself you need another pair of shoes! Here’s what you’re gonna do:
1. Flatten each bread slice with a rolling pin (or wine bottle – no judgment here!)
2. Mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth
3. Spread the mixture on each flattened bread slice
4. Roll them up tightly (like you roll your eyes at bad dating advice)
5. In a shallow bowl, whisk eggs and milk
6. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture

Now, let’s keep cooking:
1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat
2. Cook the roll-ups until golden brown on all sides
3. Roll them in cinnamon sugar while still warm
For those gorgeous caramelized bananas:
1. Melt butter in a separate pan
2. Add brown sugar and cinnamon
3. Once bubbling, add banana slices
4. Cook until golden and caramelized (about 2-3 minutes)
Serve these bad boys with the caramelized bananas on top, a drizzle of maple syrup, and if you’re feeling extra (which I always am), add a dollop of whipped cream!
Pro tip: Want to prep ahead? Make the roll-ups the night before and store them in the fridge. Just dip and cook in the morning! Because let’s be real, who’s got time to be a kitchen goddess at 7 AM?
This recipe is perfect for those lazy Sunday brunches, impressing your in-laws, or just treating yourself because you’re worth it!
