Strawberry Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups

Ingredients:

For the Roll-Ups:

  • 8 slices of white bread (or any soft bread)
  • 1/2 cup Nutella (hazelnut spread)
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, diced

For the Coating:

  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

For Cooking:

  • 2 tablespoons butter

For Garnish:

  • Powdered sugar
  • Maple syrup or extra Nutella for dipping (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Bread:
    • Trim the crusts off the slices of bread.
    • Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin until thin.
  2. Fill the Roll-Ups:
    • Spread a thin layer of Nutella over each slice of flattened bread.
    • Sprinkle diced strawberries evenly over the Nutella layer.
  3. Roll and Seal:
    • Gently roll up each slice, starting from one end and rolling towards the other, keeping the filling inside. Press lightly to seal the edges.
  4. Prepare the Coating:
    • In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using) until well combined.
  5. Cook the Roll-Ups:
    • Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add butter.
    • Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are coated.
    • Place the roll-ups in the skillet, seam side down, and cook until all sides are golden brown, turning carefully with tongs. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
  6. Garnish and Serve:
    • Remove the roll-ups from the skillet and place them on a plate.
    • Dust with powdered sugar and serve with a side of maple syrup or extra Nutella for dipping, if desired.

Tips:

  • Ensure the pan is not too hot to prevent burning the roll-ups before the egg coating is fully cooked.
  • Use stale bread for easier rolling and better absorption of the egg mixture.
  • Try other fillings, such as bananas or peanut butter, for variety.
