Strawberry Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups Recipe
Ingredients:
- 6 slices of bread (white or whole wheat, crusts removed)
- 1/2 cup Nutella
- 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)
- 2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)
- Powdered sugar, for dusting
- Maple syrup, for serving (optional)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Bread:
- Flatten each slice of bread using a rolling pin. This makes it easier to roll them up.
2. Fill the Bread:
- Spread about 1-2 tablespoons of Nutella on each slice of flattened bread. Add a few slices of strawberries on top of the Nutella. Roll the bread tightly from one end to the other.
3. Make the Egg Mixture:
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, sugar (if using), and ground cinnamon until well combined.
4. Dip the Roll-Ups:
- Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, making sure to coat all sides.
5. Cook the Roll-Ups:
- In a large skillet or frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the roll-ups seam-side down in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
6. Serve:
- Once cooked, remove the roll-ups from the skillet and place them on a serving platter. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm with maple syrup, if desired.
Customization Ideas:
- Fruit Variations: Try using other fruits like bananas or blueberries in place of strawberries.
- Nutella Alternatives: You can substitute Nutella with other spreads like almond butter or peanut butter for a different flavor.
- Add-ins: Add a sprinkle of chopped nuts or chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
