Ingredients
  

  • 12 King 's Hawaiian sweet rolls
  • 4 large egg s
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Instructions
 

  • Slice the block of Hawaiian rolls in half horizontally to create top and bottom slabs, or pull apart and slice each roll individually.
  • In a wide, shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt until fully combined.
  • Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat and melt 1 tablespoon of butter.
  • Dip each roll slice into the custard, allowing it to soak for 10-15 seconds per side without becoming over-saturated.
  • Place the soaked rolls onto the skillet in a single layer.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until deep golden brown and the custard is set through the center.
  • Add remaining butter to the pan as needed for subsequent batches.
  • Serve immediately with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh berries.
