Ingredients

Scale

8 slices thick bread (brioche or challah)
2 large eggs
1 cup whole milk
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
Maple syrup (optional for serving)

Instructions

Prepare your workspace by clearing the counter and gathering all ingredients.
In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon until combined.
Flatten each slice of bread slightly using a rolling pin. Spread the cinnamon-sugar mixture generously on one side and roll tightly.
In another bowl, whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Dip each roll quickly in the mixture.
Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add roll-ups seam-side down and cook until golden brown on all sides (about 3-4 minutes per side).
Serve immediately, dusted with powdered sugar or drizzled with maple syrup if desired.

Keywords: Use day-old bread for better texture; it absorbs the egg mixture without getting soggy. Feel free to add chocolate chips or fruit for extra sweetness.
