How To Make apple butter french toast rollups
-
Step 1In a medium bowl, beat together eggs, milk, granulated sugar and salt.
-
Step 2On a clean, flat surface (such as cutting board), using a serrated knife, cut crusts from bread and discard crusts (or save for bread crumbs.)
-
Step 3Working with one piece at a time, use a rolling pin to flatten each piece of bread.
-
Step 4Spread 1 tablespoon apple butter on 3/4 of the slice of bread, leaving a border of plain bread at one end.
-
Step 5Using a small spoon or fingertip, spread a small amount of the egg mixture onto the plain bread end to help seal the roll.
-
Step 6Starting at the apple butter end, fold end over and roll up jelly roll style; place on a plate, seam side down, and repeat with remaining bread.
-
Step 7Melt butter in a skillet, over medium heat.
-
Step 8One at a time, place each roll up in egg mixture and coat completely; place in skillet seam side down; repeat until all are coated and in skillet. (Watch the skillet carefully and lower heat when butter begins to brown.)
-
Step 9Turn roll ups to lightly brown all over; remove and place on paper towel for a moment.
-
Step 10Place on warm plate; sprinkle with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
-
Step 11Cover and refrigerate leftovers. If there is leftover egg mixture, you may store in refrigerator and use the next day. Recipe may be doubled, tripled etc...
