  • ¼ cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ½ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon

For the French Toast Casserole

  • 1 12 count package King's Hawaiian Original Sweet Rolls
  • 1 cup Nutella
  • 1 cup Fresh Strawberries sliced
  • 1 tablespoon Powdered Sugar for dusting (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon Freeze Dried Strawberries for serving

Instructions
 

  • Make the batter. In a medium sized bowl, beat together eggs, half n half, cinnamon and vanilla extract and set aside.
  • Make the sliders. Cut the sweet rolls in half and smear the bottom half with Nutella and top with strawberries. Place the top half of the sliders back on.

  • If baking them right away (after resting for 15 minutes), then place in the oven at 350F degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and 160 F degrees in the middle.
  • If baking after resting overnight, cover with foil and bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes. Remove the foil after the first 15 minutes or until golden brown and 160 F degrees in the middle.
