It’s the season for thankfulness, and boy, are we thankful for cranberry sauce! No longer just a turkey-enhancing side dish for your Thanksgiving spread, now it’s an essential element of the morning-after-Thanksgiving, post-feast recovery breakfast (and a great way to use up some of those leftovers). Enjoy this easy, 15-minute recipe, courtesy of our friends at Tasty.
CRANBERRY FRENCH TOAST ROLL UPS
Servings: 5
INGREDIENTS:
10 slices sandwich bread, such as brioche or buttermilk
4 oz cream cheese, softened, cut into chunks
1 cup cranberry sauce
3 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
½ teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon butter
Powdered sugar, for garnish
PREPARATION:
1. Roll each slice of bread flat with a rolling pin. Carefully cut off the crusts on all 4 sides.
2. In a bowl, fold cream cheese and cranberry sauce together until semi-incorporated, but not completely smooth and homogeneous.
3. Spread a tablespoon of cranberry cream cheese all over the bread, leaving a thin layer at the top of the slice and moving the majority of the spread to the bottom of the slice. Roll up gently from the bottom.
4. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla. Coat each roll-up in egg mixture.
5. Melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Pan fry the French toast rolls until all sides are golden brown. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.

My family doesn’t care for cranberry sauce. What can be substituted for that? Something like strawberry or blackberry preserves maybe?
Sherry says,
I am going to try the blueberry canned pie filling
LeeAnn says,
I made this with cranberry sauce just this morning and it was a hit. If you used a preserves they may be really sweet so I would just use more cream cheese to balance it. Definitely a good idea and easy for kids to help out.
