Maple syrup
# Instructions:
01 -
Whisk together your eggs and half and half in a big bowl until well combined. Add in the vanilla, cinnamon, brown sugar, and salt.
02 -
Take each Hawaiian roll and poke a few holes in the bottom using a toothpick. This helps the custard soak in better.
03 -
Dip each roll in the custard mix for about 30 seconds, turning to coat all sides. Don't let them soak too long or they'll get too soggy!
04 -
Melt some butter in your skillet over medium-low heat. Cook the soaked rolls for about 30-60 seconds per side until they're golden brown and crispy.
05 -
Dust your French toast with powdered sugar and serve warm with fresh berries and maple syrup if you like.
