Ingredients
  

4 large cinnamon rolls (store-bought or homemade)

4 large eggs

1 cup milk (whole or 2%)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Pinch of salt

Butter or cooking spray for the skillet

Maple syrup, for serving

Optional: powdered sugar and chopped pecans for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Cinnamon Rolls: If using store-bought cinnamon rolls, bake them according to package instructions until golden and fluffy. Allow to cool slightly, then cut each roll into fourths.

    Make the Custard Mixture: In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until smooth and well combined.

      Soak the Cinnamon Roll Pieces: Take the cut cinnamon roll pieces and dip them into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully saturated. Let them soak for about 30 seconds to absorb the custard.

        Heat the Skillet: In a large skillet or griddle, heat a tablespoon of butter or spray with cooking spray over medium heat until it's hot and bubbly.

          Cook the French Toast: Carefully place the soaked cinnamon roll pieces in the skillet, spacing them out slightly. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside.

            Serve: Remove from the skillet and serve warm. Drizzle generously with maple syrup, and if desired, sprinkle with powdered sugar and chopped pecans for an extra touch.

              Enjoy!: Dive into this deliciously decadent breakfast treat with friends and family!
