Ingredients
Scale
4 large eggs
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon sugar
12 Hawaiian sweet rolls, sliced in half
Butter, for cooking
Maple syrup, for serving
Powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined.
Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter, allowing it to melt and coat the surface.
Dip each half of the Hawaiian rolls into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well soaked but not overly soggy.
Place the soaked rolls onto the skillet or griddle and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and slightly crispy.
Repeat with remaining rolls, adding more butter to the skillet as needed.
Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
For a tropical twist, add crushed pineapple to the egg mixture or serve with fresh fruit like sliced bananas or strawberries.
To make it a bit richer, substitute half of the milk with coconut milk for a delicious flavor enhancement.
