Making Hawaiian Roll French Toast is simple and enjoyable! Follow these step-by-step instructions for a delicious result:

1. Prepare the Rolls: Slice the Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally, keeping them connected at the bottom to create a “book” of rolls.
2. Make the Custard: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, vanilla extract, sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
3. Soak the Rolls: Dip each roll, cut side down, into the custard mixture for about 10–15 seconds, allowing it to soak up the custard.
4. Preheat the Pan: Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
5. Cook the Rolls: Place the soaked rolls on the skillet, cut side down. Cook until golden brown, about 3–4 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for an additional 2–3 minutes.
6. Repeat: Continue this process with the remaining rolls, adding more butter to the pan as needed.
7. Serve Warm: Once all the rolls are cooked, serve them immediately with your choice of toppings.

These simple steps ensure you end up with a delightful breakfast that’s sure to satisfy everyone at the table.
