Ingredients

Just a few common ingredients (that you probably already have at home) is all you need to make this delicious treat!

  • Nutella
  • Bread (white works best, but whole grain will work too!
  • Milk
  • Eggs
  • Sugar
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Cinnamon
  • Butter
  • Syrup (optional…but come on!)

PRO TIP: Looking for some other ingredients to make your stuffed french toast? Try replacing the Nutella with peanut butter or cream cheese mixed with cinnamon sugar. You can even slice some fresh fruit, like bananas or strawberries, and include them in the spread!

How To Make Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups

The process is super simple.

  1. Trim off the crust from each slice of bread.
  2. Using a rolling pin and flatten the piece of bread. No need to work out your frustrations here – the bread is pretty soft and not much effort is needed.
  3. Spread each slice of bread with a layer of Nutella. Control the urge to eat everything that has Nutella on it.
  4. Tightly roll each bread slice.
  5. In a shallow dish or bowl, whisk the eggs and milk, sugar and vanilla extract and set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Dip each Nutella French Toast Roll-Up into the milk and egg mixture. A quick dip is all you need! We don’t want to soak up too much of the liquid custard.
  7. Then saute each roll over medium heat in melted butter until golden brown and slightly crispy. Remove from the pan and roll each roll-up in the cinnamon sugar.

By now, I can guarantee your kitchen smells amazing and you are more than ready to start eating (that is if you have not already taken a bite of a warm and sugary Nutella French Toast Roll-Up – I know they are hard to resist!)
