Sourdough French Toast Roll-ups

Ingredients
  

  • Bread Slices
  • 2 Eggs I used 2, but I didn't make that many roll-ups. Use however many you would need according to how many you want to make.
  • 1 splash Milk just a little to splash in your egg mixture
  • Cinnamon however much you like in your French toast egg mixture
  • Butter Butter for the pan
  • Cream Cheese softened on the counter. Or you could buy whipped!
  • Berries I just pulled a handful or so of frozen blueberries and strawberries from the freezer and let them soften a bit
  • Peanut Butter and Banana That would also be delicious!

Method
 

  1. Cut the crust off the bread slices.
  2. Roll your bread slices thin with a rolling pin, or whatever you have to roll things. Wine bottle? Other jar?
  3. Spread the softened cream cheese on the slices, going all the way to the edges. Same with peanut butter if you're doing that.
  4. Scatter the berries on the bread, not quite to the bottom edge.
  5. Roll the bread up as tightly as you can without tearing it.
  6. Beat the eggs, milk, and cinnamon.
  7. Heat a skillet over medium low heat and melt some butter in it. If you mix a little olive oil in the butter it wont burn!
  8. Coat the roll-ups in the French toast egg mixture.
  9. Cook them until they're golden on all sides. Make sure you don't move them until they're ready or else they'll stick.

Notes

Note- I made my roll-ups the night before, except for dipping them in the egg wash and cooking them. That way, all I had to do in the morning was finish them off and breakfast was served expeditiously.
Note II- I used big sourdough slices, and they worked much better for this purpose when I cut them in half. A huge slice of bread is just too much bread to filling ratio.
