Ingredients
  

For the Custard
  • 4 large Eggs Fresh eggs provide the best flavor and structure.
  • 0.5 cup Milk Whole milk recommended, 2% also works.
  • 0.25 cup Heavy Cream Enriches the custard; can swap with half-and-half.
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract Pure vanilla enhances the flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Fresh ground preferred, pre-ground can be used.
  • 2 tablespoons Sugar Sweetens the custard; brown sugar recommended.
For the Bread
  • 1 package Hawaiian Rolls Soft and sweet, great for soaking.

Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Non-stick skillet
  • Whisk

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar until well combined and smooth.
  2. Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally to create pockets for custard.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and melt butter to coat the pan. Dip each roll half into the egg mixture for about 10 seconds per side.
  4. Cook the custard-soaked rolls in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  5. Serve hot on a platter, dust with powdered sugar, and drizzle with warm maple syrup.
