Start with King’s Hawaiian Sweet Rolls
Start by slicing the Hawaiian rolls in half, separating each roll individually.
KING’S HAWAIIAN Sweet Rolls make the perfect, bite-sized French toast. Their small, but fluffy, thick slices make it easy to prep, cook, and share with friends and family. But don’t be fooled – each Hawaiian roll packs a deliciously sweet punch.
Create the Egg Mixture
In a shallow mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract together. Continue to mix ingredients together occasionally to ensure its well-blended.
French toast is a fun way to change up your basic breakfast routine, and luckily, it doesn’t take much time to make!
Dip and Crisp
Next, you’ll quickly dip (rather than soak) each Hawaiian roll in the egg mixture. Dipping your rolls make for less soggy and more crispy French toast. Lay coated Hawaiian rolls on a plate or baking sheet so they’re readily accessible for cooking. When you're ready to cook, put each roll in a frying pan and cook until golden brown for a slight crispiness.
