Strawberry-Rhubarb French Toast Rollups

Strawberry-Rhubarb French Toast Rollups

A fun, dippable twist on classic French toast. Soft bread gets rolled around a quick strawberry‑rhubarb and cream cheese filling, then dipped in a simple custard made with The Farmer’s Cow eggs and milk, and cooked until golden. These rollups are perfect for weekend breakfasts, after‑school snacks, or any time you want something a little extra—plus, they are fun to make!

Yield: 10-12 rollups

 Ingredients

  • 1½ cups rhubarb, diced small
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • 3 tbsp + ¼ cup sugar (plus more to taste)
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • 10–12 slices soft sandwich bread (white or brioche)
  • 3 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp butter for the pan
  • 2 The Farmer’s Cow large eggs
  • ⅓ cup The Farmer’s Cow whole milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ tsp cinnamon, divided
  • Salt

Instructions

1) Make the fruit filling

  • In a small saucepan, combine rhubarb, strawberries, 3 tbsp sugar, lemon juice, and salt.
  • Cook over medium‑low 6–8 minutes, stirring, until jammy and thick.
  • Cool completely (warm filling can make the bread soggy).

2) Prep the bread

  • Trim crusts and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice.
  • Spread a thin layer of cream cheese. Spoon 1–2 tsp compote near one edge, and roll up tightly. Press seam to seal.

3) Dip & cook

  • Whisk eggs, milk, vanilla, ½ tsp cinnamon, and salt in a shallow bowl.
  • Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  • Dip each roll‑up quickly (don’t soak), then place seam‑side down in the pan.
  • Cook 2–3 minutes per side, turning until golden all around.

4) Finish & serve

  • Mix ¼ cup sugar with 1 tsp cinnamon.
  • Roll warm rollups in sugar mixture.
  • Serve immediately with extra compote for dipping.
