Hawaiian Roll French Toast Recipe
Equipment
- Mixing bowls
- 12-inch Non-Stick Skillet
Ingredients
- 3 Big eggs
- ¾ cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 tbsp Vanilla
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 1 packet Hawaiian Rolls 12 rolls
Instructions
- In a big bowl, mix together the eggs, heavy whipping cream, vanilla, and cinnamon.
- Melt the butter in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Poke some holes in the bottom of each roll with a fork. Dip the rolls quickly into the egg mixture, making sure they’re coated all over.
- Place the rolls in the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes on each side until they’re golden brown.
Notes
- You don’t need to slice the rolls, just pull them apart.
- I use whole milk, but you can use low-fat milk, half-and-half, or heavy whipping cream.
- Don’t let the rolls soak in the egg mixture for too long, or they’ll get soggy. Just a quick dip on all sides is enough before cooking.
- I like to poke a few holes in each roll with a fork before dipping them in the egg mixture.
- Feel free to mix up the spices in the egg mixture. Pumpkin spice, nutmeg, allspice, or cardamom are all tasty options. You can also add a pinch of salt for extra flavor.
- If you’re making a lot of French toast, you can keep the cooked rolls warm in the oven.

How Long Do Hawaiian Rolls Last?
Homemade Hawaiian Rolls stay good for about 3 days if you keep them in a sealed container at room temperature. Don’t put them in the fridge because they’ll dry out. To make them fresh again, warm them in a 300°F oven for 5 minutes or microwave them for 15-20 seconds.
Can Hawaiian Rolls be Frozen?
Yes, you can freeze them. But if you’re going to eat them within a week or two, you don’t need to freeze them. Just keep them in a cool, dry place. If you want to store them longer, go ahead and freeze them.
