Description

Indulge in the warm, gooey goodness of Cinnamon Roll Stuffed French Toast Bake, where fluffy bread meets a rich, creamy filling. Each bite offers a delightful contrast of textures, with the crispy top giving way to a soft, cinnamon-infused center that melts in your mouth.


Ingredients

Scale
  • Bread: 1 loaf of brioche or challah, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • Cinnamon Roll Filling: 1 can (12.4 oz) refrigerated cinnamon rolls, cut into quarters
  • Egg Mixture: 6 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  3. In a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, layer half of the bread cubes evenly across the bottom.
  4. Scatter the quartered cinnamon rolls over the bread layer.
  5. Top with the remaining bread cubes, pressing down gently.
  6. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bread and cinnamon rolls, ensuring all pieces are soaked.
  7. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  8. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • This dish can be prepared the night before; simply cover and refrigerate after assembling, then bake in the morning.
