Instructions
Creating these delightful Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites is a straightforward process. Follow these easy steps to make them:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Dough: Open the can of cinnamon rolls and separate the rolls. Cut each roll into quarters.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until fully combined.
4. Combine: Add the dough pieces into the egg mixture, gently tossing to ensure all pieces are evenly coated.
5. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Spread the coated dough generously on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the pieces are not touching.
6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the bites are golden brown and puffed up.
7. Make the Icing: While the bites bake, mix together the powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of milk until you achieve a smooth, pourable consistency.
8. Glaze the Bites: Once the bites are done baking, drizzle the icing over them while they are still warm for the best coverage.
9. Cool: Allow the bites to cool for about 10-15 minutes on the baking sheet.
10. Serve Warm: If desired, drizzle with maple syrup just before serving!
With these simple steps, you’ll create a dish that is not only fun to eat but also visually attractive.
