Method

  1. 1

    In a bowl, whisk together the half & half, eggs, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium‑high heat and lightly coat with butter or oil.

  3. 3

    One at a time, dip each Kings Hawaiian Maple Brown Sugar roll into the egg mixture, allowing it to soak briefly so the coating adheres to all sides.

  4. 4

    Place the coated rolls in the hot skillet and cook for 2‑3 minutes per side, or until each side is golden brown and the interior is heated through.

  5. 5

    Transfer the French toast bites to a serving plate, serve warm, and optionally drizzle with maple syrup and dust with powdered sugar.
