Description
Learn how to make delicious RECIPE for Cinnamon Roll French Toast bites. Easy recipe with step-by-step instructions.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 slices of day-old bread, cut into cubes
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons milk (for the glaze)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for the glaze)
Feel free to make substitutions: use almond milk instead of whole milk for a dairy-free option, or swap in coconut sugar for a healthier touch. This flexibility is a testament to the problem-solving spirit I embraced after that memorable chili mishap.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
- Add the bread cubes to the mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Let them soak for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- Transfer the soaked bread cubes into the prepared baking dish, spreading them evenly.
- Drizzle the melted butter over the top for a golden finish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the French toast bites are set and lightly browned.
- While the French toast is baking, prepare the glaze by whisking together the powdered sugar, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Once baked, drizzle the glaze over the warm French toast bites before serving.
Remember, like with any dish, patience is key. If the glaze isn’t smooth at first, keep whisking—just like I learned with my early culinary experiments, persistence pays off!
