I love finding new ideas for breakfast time like these Apple French Toast Roll-Ups, which are simply wonderful for apple season.
Slices of bread, filled with delicious cream cheese and apple cinnamon mixture are rolled and dipped in egg and milk mixture and then cooked until golden brown. And that is not all, once cooked, they are rolled in a cinnamon sugar mixture for extra flavor and texture. It is such an incredible way of having an apple for breakfast, and kids love it.
French Toast Roll-Ups can be made with various fillings, so just let your imagination find the perfect filling for your breakfast or snack. You can also consider making savory rolls like using cheese, ham or bacon or even veggies as filling. I am telling you, the options are endless.
Hope you will give these Apple French Toast Roll-Ups a try and don’t forget to let me know if you enjoyed them.

Hi Ella – These look amazing. Can you make the rolls a day before or will the bread get soggy?
Made this twice now and shared your recipe on my fb. Thanks for this recipe! It was delicious!
CAN THE FRENCH ROLLS BE FROZEN
came out very well, nice combination between sweet and savory. I planned on making half a dozen but the one apple I cut (medium-large) gave me enough to make 12. had to use 3 eggs instead of 2.
