Ingredients
Scale
For the French Toast:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk (whole milk recommended)
- 1 Tbsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/8 tsp nutmeg
- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter
- 12 Hawaiian Rolls, sliced horizontally (such as King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls)
For Serving:
- Confectioners’ sugar (optional)
- Maple syrup (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a wide, deep bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg.
- Heat Griddle or Skillet: Heat a griddle or large skillet over medium heat and brush with 1 Tbsp of butter.
- Dip and Toast the Rolls: Dip Hawaiian roll halves into the egg mixture, ensuring they are saturated but not dripping, then place on the heated griddle. Cook until golden brown on both sides.
