Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices of bread (white or whole wheat, preferably thick-sliced)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
- A pinch of salt (optional, to enhance flavor)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or grease it lightly with cooking spray.
- Prepare the bread: Trim the crusts off the bread slices and flatten them gently with a rolling pin (optional, but helps for rolling). Then, cut each slice of bread into halves or quarters, depending on how large you want the roll-ups to be.
- Make the cinnamon mixture: In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon, sugar (if using), and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
- Brush with butter and honey: Brush each piece of bread with the melted butter, then drizzle a small amount of honey on each piece. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the honey-buttered bread.
- Roll them up: Carefully roll each piece of bread into a tight log, starting from one edge. Place the roll-ups seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the roll-ups are golden brown and crispy.
-
- Serve: Let the roll-ups cool slightly before serving. Drizzle with a little extra honey for extra sweetness, if desired.
Notes
- Bread choice: For a slightly richer flavor, you can use brioche or challah bread instead of regular white bread.
- Toppings: These roll-ups are great with a light dusting of powdered sugar or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a fun dessert twist.
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days. You can also freeze them and reheat them in the microwave or oven.
