Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites – The ultimate brunch mashup! Golden, bite-sized pieces packed with cinnamon swirl flavor, dunkable in cream cheese icing or maple syrup. Holiday-morning magic, ready in minutes.

Ingredients

Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites:

  • 1 can (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing (8 rolls)

Custard Mixture:

  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Additional Ingredients:

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • Maple syrup, for serving
  • Powdered sugar, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. PREP THE CINNAMON ROLLS: Open the can of cinnamon rolls and set the icing aside. Cut each roll into 4 equal bite-sized pieces.
  2. MIX THE CUSTARD: In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon.
  3. DIP THE BITES: Dip each cinnamon roll piece into the egg mixture, ensuring full coating. Allow excess to drip off before cooking.
  4. COOK THE BITES: Heat butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add cinnamon roll bites in a single layer and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  5. FINISH AND SERVE: Microwave reserved icing until pourable. Drizzle icing over bites, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and serve warm with maple syrup.

Notes

  • For a brunch buffet, serve these bites in mini cupcake liners for easy grabbing.
  • Keep extra maple syrup and icing on the side for guests to customize their bites.
