Cinnamon French Toast Bake

There's snow on the ground and I have the urge to bake things with cinnamon in them ... sending those heavenly smells wafting through the house.  This is a quick recipe that uses Pillsbury's Cinnabon rolls and I've tried to reduce the calories by using reduced fat ingredients.

 

1 can reduced fat Pillsbury Cinnabon Rolls (12.4 oz)

1/4 cup fat free half and half

3 eggs

2 Tbsp. butter

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1/4 tsp. nutmeg

1/4 cup maple syrup

 

 

1. Melt the 2 tablespoons of butter in a 8 x 8 square pan in a hot oven. Remove from oven when butter has melted.

 

2. Open the can of rolls, set the can of icing aside. Cut each roll into eight pieces and place the pieces in the square pan on the melted butter.

 

3. Beat the half and half and eggs together. Add the cinnamon and nutmeg and pour over the cinnamon roll pieces, making sure that all the pieces are coated. Set aside.

 

4. Preheat the oven to 360 degrees. Place the pan in the oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes until french toast is golden brown.

 

5. Remove pan from oven and set aside for about 10 minutes. Heat icing in the microwave for a few seconds, and then drizzle over the french toast bake. Serve with maple syrup.
