Ingredients
- 4 Hot dog buns
- 3 large Eggs
- 0.75 cups Milk
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 0.25 cups Powdered sugar
- 0.5 cups Maple syrup
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Split the hot dog buns in half lengthwise if they are not pre-split, but do not separate the halves completely.
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt until combined.
Step 3
Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter, swirling to coat the surface.
Step 4
Dip each hot dog bun half into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are well-coated but not soaked to the point of breaking apart.
Step 5
Place the dipped buns on the heated skillet or griddle and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly crisp.
Step 6
Repeat the dipping and cooking process with the remaining buns, adding the second tablespoon of butter to the skillet as needed.
Step 7
Transfer the cooked buns to serving plates and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Drizzle with maple syrup and top with fresh fruit, if desired.
Step 8
Serve warm and enjoy your French Toasted Hot Dog Buns as a fun and delicious breakfast option!
