Tips for Perfect Pumpkin French Toast Roll-Ups

1. Use soft sandwich bread

It rolls tightly without cracking.

2. Don’t over-dip

Lightly coat in custard to prevent sogginess.

3. Cook over medium heat

This gives the bread time to crisp without burning.

4. Coat while hot

Warm bread helps cinnamon-sugar stick beautifully.

5. Double the filling for extra creamy centers

Use up to 1.5 tbsp filling per roll depending on bread size.
