INGREDIENTS:

- 2 tbsp vegan butter
- One tbsp granulated sugar
CINNAMON FILLING:
- 1½ tsp ground cinnamon
- One tbsp softened vegan butter

- Half tsp ground cinnamon
INGREDIENT NOTES:
SOFT VEGAN SANDWICH BREAD:
- This is the main ingredient to make the outside of the roll-ups. It gets flat and rolls easily without breaking. You may use whole-wheat vegan bread as per your preference.
GRANULATED SUGAR:
- It gives a sweet taste to the cinnamon filling and a classic cinnamon-sugar taste to the recipe. You may use coconut sugar as an alternative.
VEGAN BUTTER:
- This butter sticks the cinnamon sugar to the bread. It makes the filling soft and buttery when we heat the recipe. You may use unsweetened applesauce as another idea.
UNSWEETENED OAT MILK:
- It makes the liquid base of the toast mixture. Oat milk gives a mild and creamy taste to the roll-ups. You may use unsweetened soy milk as a substitute.
ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR:
- This flour makes the French toast mixture thick. It helps the coating stick well to the bread and makes it brown nicely in the skillet. If you do not want gluten in the recipe, then use all-purpose gluten-free flour.
MAPLE SYRUP:
- It gives gentle sweetness to the toast coating. Maple syrup includes a pleasant warm taste in the roll-ups. You may use date syrup as a substitute.
INSTRUCTIONS:
- First, add sugar and cinnamon to the small bowl, then mix in vegan butter.
- Place one bread slice on the board and cut off the crusts.
- Flatten it with the rolling pin and do the same steps with the remaining bread slices.
- Spread a thin layer of cinnamon filling on 1 side of the slices.
- Tightly roll the bread slices into a small cylinder and put them seam-side down.
- Whisk oat milk, maple syrup, flour, vanilla, salt, and cinnamon in the bowl.
- Make the mixture smooth with no lumps left, then dip the roll-up in this mixture.
- Do not soak the bread roll-ups for too long so they do not get soft.
- Warm the skillet over moderate flame and include vegan butter in it.
- Cook the roll-ups in the skillet for two minutes, then turn them gently.
- Keep turning till all the sides get golden brown.
- Mix one tsp cinnamon with one tbsp sugar in the bowl.
- Lastly, roll the dessert in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.
