Ingredients
– 8 slices of white bread (or your preferred bread type)
– 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
– 1/4 cup powdered sugar
– 1 tsp vanilla extract
– 1/2 cup fresh strawberries or other preferred fruit (sliced)

– 1/4 cup milk
– 1 tsp cinnamon
– 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)

Instructions
Making these incredible stuffed French toast roll-ups is easier than you might think! Just follow these simple steps:
1. Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until it forms a smooth paste.
2. Flatten the Bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread gently. This helps in rolling them easily without tearing.
3. Add Filling and Fruit: Spread a generous amount of the cream cheese mixture onto each flattened slice. Top with a few slices of fresh strawberries or your choice of fruit.
4. Roll Up the Bread: Carefully roll the bread slices from one side to the other, forming a tight roll. Make sure the filling stays inside while rolling.
5. Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, and cinnamon. This mixture will coat the roll-ups before frying.
6. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. While it’s heating up, dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, coating all sides.
7. Fry the Roll-Ups: Place the roll-ups in the skillet seam side down. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy.
