1/4 cup milk – This helps to soften the texture and give the French toast that classic fluffiness.
1 teaspoon vanilla extract – Adds a rich, sweet flavor that enhances the cinnamon rolls.
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon – To boost the cinnamon flavor and give an extra spice kick.
2 tablespoons butter – For frying the bites to golden perfection.
Powdered sugar (optional, for serving) – Adds a decorative dusting of sweetness.
Maple syrup or icing (optional, for serving) – Drizzle these over the top for an extra layer of indulgence.
Feel free to substitute dairy-free milk for a vegan option or use gluten-free cinnamon rolls if necessary to accommodate dietary needs.

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Cinnamon Rolls
First, open the can of refrigerated cinnamon rolls and set the icing aside. Using a sharp knife, cut each cinnamon roll into bite-sized pieces. This will make them easier to cook and eat.
Step 2: Whisk the Egg Mixture
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. This egg mixture will coat the cinnamon roll bites, giving them that classic French toast texture.
Step 3: Coat the Cinnamon Roll Bites
Dip each cinnamon roll bite into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are fully coated. Allow any excess mixture to drip off before placing them in the pan.
Step 4: Cook the Bites
Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the butter is hot and bubbling, add the coated cinnamon roll bites to the skillet in a single layer. Cook each bite for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; you may need to cook them in batches.
Step 5: Serve and Enjoy
Transfer the cooked bites to a serving platter. Drizzle with the reserved icing from the cinnamon rolls or maple syrup for an extra touch of sweetness. If desired, sprinkle a dusting of powdered sugar over the top for a picture-perfect finish.

Notes
Use a non-stick skillet: This ensures that the bites don’t stick to the pan and makes for easy flipping.
Don’t soak the bites too long in the egg mixture: You want them to be coated, but too much soaking can make them soggy.
Serve warm: These bites are best served immediately, while still warm and crispy on the outside.
