Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 6 slices bread (white or brioche)
- 1 egg
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) butter
Filling and Flavor Enhancers:
- 3 tablespoons (45 g) softened cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons (25 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5 g) cinnamon
Flavor Additives:
- 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gently press down each bread slice using a rolling pin to create a uniform, thin surface.
- Apply a delicate layer of cream cheese across the entire bread slice, ensuring even coverage.
- Combine ground cinnamon and granulated sugar, then generously dust the cream cheese-covered bread.
- Carefully roll each slice into tight, compact cylinders, securing the filling inside.
- Whisk together egg, milk, and vanilla extract in a shallow dish, creating a smooth custard mixture.
- Submerge each rolled bread piece into the egg mixture, rotating to achieve complete and consistent coating.
- Heat a skillet over medium temperature (around 350°F), adding butter to create a golden cooking surface.
- Carefully place roll-ups in the skillet, rotating periodically to achieve an evenly caramelized exterior with a crispy golden-brown finish.
- Transfer cooked roll-ups to serving plates and drizzle with warm maple syrup for a decadent breakfast experience.
Notes
- Choose soft, fresh white bread with minimal crust for the best texture and easier rolling.
- Let cream cheese soften at room temperature to spread smoothly without tearing the bread.
- Press gently when rolling to prevent bread from breaking and ensure a tight, compact roll-up.
- Add a pinch of salt to the egg mixture to enhance overall flavor and balance sweetness.
