Hey there, breakfast lovers! 💁♀️ Let me tell you about my absolute favorite morning treat that’s been making waves in my household – my heavenly French Toast Roll-Ups! Trust me, once you try these bad boys, you’ll never look at regular French toast the same way again.
You know those mornings when you want something special but don’t want to spend forever in the kitchen? Girl, I’ve got you covered! These roll-ups are basically like a warm cinnamon-sugar hug wrapped in bread, and they take just 15 minutes to make. Perfect for those days when you’re running late but still want to feel fancy!
Here’s what you’ll need (I know you’ve got most of these in your kitchen already):
– 8 slices of white bread
– 4 oz cream cheese, softened
– 2 tablespoons strawberry jam (or any berry jam – I won’t judge!)
– 2 eggs
– 3 tablespoons milk
– 1/3 cup sugar
– 1 teaspoon cinnamon
– 2 tablespoons butter
– Maple syrup for drizzling (because duh!)
Now, let’s get cooking! 🍳
1. First, grab your bread and cut off those crusts (save them for breadcrumbs – we’re not wasteful here!)
2. Roll each slice flat with a rolling pin. If you don’t have one, use a wine bottle – we’ve all been there! 😉
1. Spread some cream cheese and jam on each slice. Don’t be shy with it!
2. Roll these babies up tight, like you’re rolling up your yoga mat after a good stretch.

1. Mix your eggs and milk in a shallow dish
2. In another dish, mix sugar and cinnamon
3. Heat butter in a pan over medium heat
4. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture (give it a little wiggle!)
5. Cook until golden brown on all sides
6. Roll in that cinnamon-sugar goodness while still hot
And voilà! Serve these beauties warm with maple syrup, and watch everyone’s faces light up! They’re crispy on the outside, creamy on the inside, and absolutely divine. My kids literally fight over these – no joke!
Pro tip: Try different fillings! Nutella and banana, peanut butter and honey, or go savory with ham and cheese. The possibilities are endless, honey!
