Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the Bread: Remove the crusts from 10 slices of fresh white sandwich bread and flatten each slice with a rolling pin to about ¼-inch thick.
  2. Make the Filling: Combine melted butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon in a bowl, and spread this filling over the flattened bread slices.
  3. Roll the Bread: Roll each slice of bread tightly from one end to the other and seal the edges.
  4. Whisk the Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and additional ground cinnamon until smooth.
  5. Heat the Skillet: Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, adding a tablespoon of butter to melt.
  6. Coat the Roll-Ups: Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture and place in the skillet seam-side down.
  7. Cook to Perfection: Cook the roll-ups for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then rotate for even browning.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Remove from skillet, plate, and serve warm with maple syrup or powdered sugar.
