Ingredients
- 12 hawaiian rolls split in half
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup half and half
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Butter or non-stick spray for cooking
Instructions
- Whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a shallow dish or bowl, until well combined.
- Preheat a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Lightly grease with butter or non-stick spray.
- Dip each split Hawaiian roll into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well coated. Let the excess liquid drip off.
- Place the soaked rolls onto the heated skillet or griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove from heat and place on a serving plate. Repeat with the remaining rolls.
- Serve the French toast warm, topped with your favorite syrup and toppings.

Notes
- - Soak Time: Be careful not to over soak the Hawaiian rolls as they are softer than traditional bread. A quick dip is all that's needed to coat them in the custard.
- - Cooking Temperature: Ensure that the skillet or griddle is at a medium heat. A higher heat might cause the outside to brown too quickly, leaving the inside undercooked, especially given the richer custard mixture.
