Method
- Prepare the Batter: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until smooth and well combined.
- Dip the Rolls: If you prefer, slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally for more even soaking. Working one roll (or slice) at a time, dip the rolls into the batter, allowing them to soak for a few seconds on each side. Be careful not to oversoak, as the rolls can become too soft and fall apart.
- Cook the Rolls: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Place the soaked rolls on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Repeat with the remaining rolls, adding more butter as needed between batches.
- Serve: Transfer the cooked French toast to a serving platter. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve with maple syrup, fresh fruit, or your favorite toppings.
Notes
Make It Ahead: Prepare the batter the night before and refrigerate it. In the morning, dip and cook the rolls fresh.
Custom Toppings: Try topping with shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or whipped cream for a tropical vibe.
Leftovers: Store leftover French toast in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or toaster oven for the best texture.
