French Toasty Roll-Ups

David Venable

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Serves: 4

Ingredients

  • 12 slices of white bread
  • 1/4 cup chocolate hazelnut spread like Nutella, plus more for garnish
  • 1-1/4 cup raspberries, cut in half
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 Tbsp sugar
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • Powdered sugar for garnish

Preparation

Cut the crust off each slice of bread and roll flat with a rolling pin. It should be very thin and bendable. Spread each slice evenly with a teaspoon of Nutella.

Arrange 5 to 6 raspberry halves in a row against the wide edge of the bread and roll into a tight log. Set aside.

Set a nonstick or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, milk, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl.

Once the pan is hot, add the butter. It should foam gently. Dip each bread roll into the egg mixture. Let the excess drip off before laying into the pan.

Cook gently, turning to brown all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes in total. Remove to a plate and garnish with powdered sugar. To finish, warm two tablespoons of Nutella in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds. Drizzle all over and enjoy!

Cook's Notes

Mix up the filling by swapping raspberries out with whatever fruit you have on hand!
