Cinnamon Roll French Toast

Yes, you heard that right!  We French toast anything here at Storkbite’s house.  I’ve French toasted a nut ring, various danishes, cinnamon rolls of all sorts and regular old challah bread.  Storkbite’s Uncle Jimmy is a French toast feind so we got a little experimental when he used to live around the corner (we miss you!).

Cinnamon Roll French Toast with Blueberries

For this I used four stale cinnamon rolls from the market, frozen blueberries, real maple syrup and pecans.  The rest is just plain old French toast supplies from the pantry:

4 stale cinnamon rolls, cut in half

Dip the cut side in a mixture of: 1 egg, a splash of milk, a sprinkle of cinnamon, a dash of real vanilla extract.

Put the cut and now gooey egg drenched side of the roll down on your hot grill pan which has been prepped with a little butter or oil.

Cook them until the egg side is nice and golden brown.

Put your rolls on a fancy plate, add fresh or defrosted blueberries, toasted pecans, and powder sugar. Make sure you have REAL maple syrup to finish it off.  These little toasts are seriously impressive and delicious.

Are you sure you don’t want to move back to NYC, Uncle Jimmy?!?
