Description
A delightful twist on traditional French toast using soft, sweet Hawaiian rolls, perfect for brunch or a cozy morning meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 Hawaiian rolls
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream or whole milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp nutmeg
- 2 tbsp butter
- Fresh fruit (berries or bananas) for topping
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Maple syrup for serving
Instructions
- Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth.
- Dip each half of the rolls in the custard mixture, letting them absorb the mixture.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt butter.

Notes
For best results, allow the rolls to soak adequately but don’t let them become too soggy. Maintain a consistent medium heat while cooking.
