Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 slices white bread, crusts removed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil, for frying

Optional Fillings

  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 2 tablespoons jam (any flavor)
  • 2 tablespoons Nutella or chocolate spread
  • Fresh fruit slices (strawberries, bananas, or blueberries)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Filling and Bread: Flatten each bread slice slightly if needed and remove the crusts to make rolling easier. Spread your desired filling evenly onto each slice, making sure it covers the surface but does not overflow when rolled.
  2. Roll the Bread: Carefully roll each bread slice tightly from one edge to the other, sealing the filling inside to create the signature roll shape that holds together during cooking.
  3. Mix the Egg Batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined. This mixture will coat the roll ups and help them turn golden when cooked.
  4. Dip the Roll Ups: Dip each roll up into the egg mixture, turning to coat all sides thoroughly but not soaking too long to avoid sogginess.
  5. Cook Until Golden: Heat butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Fry the coated roll ups, turning to brown all sides evenly, about 2-3 minutes per side until golden and slightly crispy.
  6. Serve Warm: Remove the roll ups from the skillet and let them cool just enough to handle. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh, soft bread for easier rolling and better soaking.
  • Do not overfill to prevent bursting during cooking.
  • Cook on low to medium heat for a golden crust without burning.
  • Prepare the egg mixture in advance to save time and ensure even coating.
  • Serve immediately to enjoy the best texture and flavor.
