Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites

Sweet, fluffy, and utterly delicious, these Cinnamon Roll French Toast Bites are a fun twist on classic French toast. Made with refrigerated cinnamon rolls dipped in an egg-milk mixture and cooked until golden, they’re perfect for breakfast or brunch. Topped with icing and a sprinkle of powdered sugar, these bites deliver gooey cinnamon flavor in every mouthwatering piece.

  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 3-4 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing (8 rolls)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup milk

Instructions

  • Prep the cinnamon rolls: Cut each cinnamon roll into bite-sized pieces (about 1-inch chunks). Set aside.
  • Make the egg mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined.
  • Dip the cinnamon roll bites: Working in batches, dip the cinnamon roll pieces into the egg mixture, ensuring they are fully coated but not soaked.
  • Cook the bites: Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter or cooking spray. Place the coated bites on the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Serve: Remove from heat and drizzle with the included icing or sprinkle powdered sugar on top. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the egg mixture.
  • These bites can also be baked in an oven-safe dish at 350°F (175°C) for 15-20 minutes for a hands-off approach.
  • Serve with fresh berries or a drizzle of maple syrup for an indulgent breakfast.
  • Leftovers can be reheated in a toaster oven or microwave but are best enjoyed fresh.
