A couple of weeks ago I posted Ham & Cheese French Toastie Roll Ups. French toast you can eat with your hands and tastes like ham and cheese toasties. After those roll ups turned out so well, I simply had to come up with a bacon version. Because…..you know…..bacon. The smell of sizzling bacon in the morning is the best thing in the world, especially if you had too much wine last night. The person that figures out how to bottle it up will become a billionaire. Or maybe not. Because I just realised how disappointing it would be to wake up to the smell of frying bacon only to find there’s no bacon to be consumed. “These are super easy to make, as long as you use fresh supermarket sandwich bread. Fancy artisan bread is no good for this recipe!” These Bacon French Toast Roll Ups are da bomb! Crispy bacon encased by bread that’s been dipped in a french toast egg mixture, then pan fried until gloriously golden brown. If you have self restraint issues like me, it will take you 2 bites and 5 seconds to inhale each roll up.
“If you really want to go all out, dunk them in Nachos Cheese Dip. There are simply no words to describe how insanely, eye-rollingly good that is.” These are super easy to make. I know it might look tedious, but it’s not at all. I don’t do tedious. The only tip is to use fresh sandwich bread. Just plain sandwich bread you get from the supermarket. None of that fancy artisan bread, like sourdough and ciabattas. Those are no good for these roll ups. The reason you need to use fresh sandwich bread is because stale bread won’t stay rolled up. In fact, it sort of crumbles when you roll it up because it’s too dry. I make these with bread that’s a day old at most. If the bread is 2 to 3 days old, you need extra egg mixture to re-moisten the bread. I’ve provided directions in the notes to the recipe. These are crazy good as they are, but if you really want to catapult them into another universe, then serve them with Nacho Cheese Dip. So. Insanely. Good. I am lost for words. OK, I need to sign off right now because otherwise I will keep rattling on and you need the recipe. You need it. You really do. Enjoy! – Nagi
