Ingredients

  • 6 slices fresh white sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 1/2 punnet strawberries, diced small
  • 4 1/2 tbsp Nutella
  • 1/4 cup caster sugar (superfine sugar)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp milk (full cream or low fat)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a flat-based bowl large enough to fit the roll ups, whisk together the egg, milk, and a pinch of salt to create the egg mixture.
  2. Step 2: Spread the caster sugar evenly in a small dish for coating later.
  3. Step 3: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread. This will make rolling easier and help the roll ups stay sealed.
  4. Step 4: Spread about 3/4 tablespoon of Nutella on each flattened bread slice.
  5. Step 5: Sprinkle diced strawberries along the bottom edge of each slice.
  6. Step 6: Carefully roll up each slice from the bottom, using the Nutella to seal the edges.
  7. Step 7: Melt the butter in a pan over medium-high heat.
  8. Step 8: Dip each roll up into the egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then place it in the pan. Repeat with the remaining roll ups.
  9. Step 9: Cook the roll ups for about 4 minutes, turning every minute or so, until all sides are golden brown.
  10. Step 10: Remove each roll up from the pan and immediately roll it in the caster sugar to coat evenly. Repeat with the rest.
  11. Step 11: Serve the roll ups warm for the best taste and texture.

Tips & Variations

  • For an extra indulgent touch, sprinkle some cinnamon into the caster sugar before coating the roll ups.
  • Try swapping strawberries for other fresh fruits like blueberries or banana slices for a different flavor.
  • Use whole wheat or brioche bread for a richer texture and flavor.

Storage

These roll ups are best enjoyed fresh and warm. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave until warm, but note the bread may lose some crispness.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 slices fresh white sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 1/2 punnet strawberries, diced small
  • 4 1/2 tbsp Nutella

Coating and Cooking

  • 1/4 cup caster sugar (superfine sugar)
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp milk (full cream or low fat)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a bowl with a flat base large enough to dip the roll ups in, whisk together the egg, milk, and a pinch of salt until fully combined.
  2. Prepare Sugar Coating: Spread the caster sugar evenly in a small dish, setting it aside for coating later.
  3. Flatten the Bread: Using a rolling pin, roll each slice of bread flat to make it easier to roll up and help it stay rolled during cooking.
  4. Spread Nutella: Evenly spread about 3/4 tablespoon of Nutella on each flattened bread slice.
  5. Add Strawberries: Sprinkle a line of diced strawberries along the bottom edge of each Nutella-covered bread slice.
  6. Roll Up Bread: Carefully roll the bread slices from the strawberry edge to form tight roll ups. The Nutella acts as a glue to hold the rolls sealed.
  7. Heat Butter in Pan: Melt the tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium-high heat until hot and bubbling.
  8. Coat Roll Ups with Egg Mixture: Dip each roll up into the egg mixture coating all sides, then shake off excess to prevent sogginess.
  9. Cook the Roll Ups: Place the coated roll ups in the hot pan. Cook for about 4 minutes, turning every minute or so to ensure even golden browning on all sides.
  10. Coat with Sugar: Remove cooked roll ups from the pan and immediately roll them in the caster sugar to coat evenly, then transfer to a serving plate. Repeat with remaining roll ups.
  11. Serve: Serve the Strawberry Nutella French Toast Roll Ups immediately while warm for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Rolling the bread flat is essential to help it roll up easily and avoid tearing.
  • You can substitute white bread with whole wheat or brioche for different flavors and textures.
  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and butter alternatives.
  • Adjust cooking time depending on your stove and pan to avoid burning.
  • Serve with additional fresh strawberries or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra indulgence.
