Nutella strawberry French toast roll-ups are a fun twist to classic French toast. Rolled bread slices are filled with homemade Nutella and fresh strawberries, rolled into a sausage, and fried until golden brown. These are the most amazing breakfast treats that the entire family would love.

Nutella filling turns the inside all gooey and the outer is crispy and golden brown. They are so tasty and almost melt-in-mouth. It takes 15 minutes tops to get it done.
Just like classic French toast but even better. These are super fun to make and easy to eat, you can eat by hand. The sausage-like shape makes it easy to pick up and dip in your favorite syrup.
Easy to customize. You can add any filling of your choice.

How to make
Use white or brown sandwich bread and trim the crust of the bread slices. Using a rolling pin flatten the bread slices into a thin strip. Generously spread Nutella over the flattened bread slice leaving the edges. Stuff with chopped strawberries and roll it tight, ensuring the filling does not come out. Repeat for the rest of the bread slices. Mix the caster sugar and cinnamon powder on a shallow plate, and keep aside.
Melt butter in a skillet. In a wide bowl whisk egg and milk. Quickly dip each roll in egg mixture to coat evenly (work quickly, should not take more than 5-10 seconds), and shake off excess egg mixture. On medium flame, cook filled bread rolls until all sides are cooked golden brown. Keep turning the rolls frequently so it doesn’t burn. Repeat the same process with the rest of the rolls.
Coat french toast roll-ups in cinnamon sugar immediately while it’s still hot. Serve immediately with maple syrup on the side for dunking in.
