# Steps:
01 -
Blend melted butter, 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, brown sugar, and 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon until a smooth spread forms.
02 -
In a shallow bowl, thoroughly whisk eggs with milk until fully combined.
03 -
Combine 2 tablespoons granulated sugar with 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
04 -
Flatten each bread slice evenly with a rolling pin. Spread a thin layer of cinnamon butter mixture over each slice, then roll tightly.
05 -
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are coated, and place seam-side down in the skillet.
06 -
Cook roll-ups, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crisp on all sides, about 4-6 minutes total.
07 -
While warm, immediately roll cooked roll-ups in prepared cinnamon sugar mixture to evenly coat.
08 -
Arrange on a plate and serve promptly with maple syrup.
# Notes:
01 -
Use soft, fresh bread for best results—stale bread will crack during rolling.
