How to Make Peach Cobbler French Toast?

Step 1: Prep all ingredients

Make the cream-egg mixture and set aside. Grind up the graham crackers, prepare the cinnamon sugar and make the simple peach filling.

Step 2: Fill the Hawaiian Rolls

Cut a 1 1/2″ hole in the tops of each rolls (only working the knife 3/4 of the way down). Slice off the excess bread from the bread top “plug” that you removed, allowing room for the filling.

Add a few spoonfuls of peach filling into each roll and replace the tops to plug the hole. Use a fork to tamp down the tops to seal them.

Step 3: Batter and Pan Fry

Heat a skillet to medium low and add butter. Dunk in the egg mixture, then roll in the graham crackers, then cook in the skillet about 2 minutes per side until golden brown. Be sure to monitor your pan temp so the butter doesn’t burn and brown.

Step 4: Toss & Glaze

Toss each of the french toast bites into the cinnamon sugar straight from the warm pan. Toss on each side for full coverage. Optionally, you can also top these with a buttery glaze made with melted butter and powdered sugar (see full recipe details below).

What Kind of Bread is Used?

To keep this recipe simple and easy and to yield the perfect bite-sized squares, we are using King’s Hawaiian dinner rolls (12 pack). Hawaiian rolls are melt-in-your-mouth soft with the perfect amount of sweetness.

You can also use brioche rolls if you don’t have access to Hawaiian rolls. Unfortunately, I haven’t tested these with any other rolls so at this time these are the only rolls I recommend.

Do These Peach Cobbler French Toast Bites Taste “Eggy”?

On a scale from 1-Eggy, these french toast bites are a 3. I am in the minority when I say, I don’t like eggy french toast. For most people, this is what makes french toast shine. For me, it’s off-putting. Since this is more of a brunch dessert, I cut back the amount of eggs in the cream-egg mixture.

If you prefer traditional eggy french toast, you can simply add 1-2 more eggs into the cream mixture without adjusting any other ingredients.
