Ingredients
  

8 Hawaiian rolls

4 large eggs

1 cup milk

2 tablespoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons butter (for cooking)

Fresh pineapple chunks (for serving)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Powdered sugar (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, brown sugar, and salt until well combined. Set aside.

    Slice the Rolls: Cut each Hawaiian roll in half horizontally. You can leave them as whole buns for a more hearty toast or separate into halves for quicker cooking.

      Soak the Rolls: Dip each piece of Hawaiian roll into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak for about 10-15 seconds on each side. Ensure they’re well-coated but not overly soggy.

        Heat the Pan: In a large skillet or griddle, melt the butter over medium heat. Ensure it’s evenly coated on the surface.

          Cook the Rolls: Place the soaked Hawaiian rolls, cut-side down, in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly crispy. You may need to cook in batches depending on the size of your skillet.

            Serve: Remove the cooked French toast from the skillet and place it on a serving platter. Top with fresh pineapple chunks, a drizzle of maple syrup, and a light dusting of powdered sugar.

              Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy this delightful twist on traditional French toast!
