Ingredients
Scale
For the Roll-Ups
- 8 slices of bread
- 1/2 cup chocolate hazelnut spread
For the Egg Mixture
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Cooking and Garnish
- 1 tablespoon butter
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Flatten the bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread gently, making them easier to roll without tearing.
- Spread chocolate hazelnut: Evenly spread chocolate hazelnut spread on each slice of flattened bread, ensuring good coverage.
- Roll up the bread: Tightly roll up each slice from one end to the other, enclosing the chocolate hazelnut spread inside.
- Prepare egg mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until fully combined to create a smooth batter.
- Dip the roll-ups: Dip each rolled slice into the egg mixture, coating it thoroughly to allow for a crispy exterior after cooking.
- Heat the pan: Melt the butter in a skillet or frying pan over medium heat to get it ready for cooking the roll-ups.
- Cook the roll-ups: Place the coated roll-ups in the heated pan and cook, turning occasionally until all sides are golden brown and the egg mixture is cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per roll.
- Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the pan, dust with powdered sugar, and serve warm for a delicious breakfast or snack.
Notes
- Use fresh bread slices for easier rolling; slightly stale or thick bread may crack while rolling.
- You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free option.
- For added texture, sprinkle chopped hazelnuts inside before rolling.
- If you prefer, add a pinch of cinnamon to the egg mixture for extra flavor.
- These roll-ups are best served immediately but can be kept warm in a low oven for a short time.
