Cinnabon French Toast

2 Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls
2 eggs
2/3 cup half−and−half
3/4 tsp. vanilla
1 T. sugar
1/8 tsp. cinnamon
1−2 T. butter or margarine
Slice Cinnabon rolls in half horizontally. Place them, cut side up, on a
plate and allow to dry for 20−30 minutes. Combine eggs, half−and−half,
vanilla, sugar, and cinnamon. Whisk together until all ingredients are well
blended. Refrigerate until ready to use. At serving time, preheat oven to
400 , and place Cinnabon halves in a shallow baking dish. Pour french toast
batter over halves and allow to soak for 5−10 minutes until moist. You may
weigh the rolls down (cover them with waxed paper and place a heavy skillet
on the paper) during this time to make sure batter is absorbed into the
dough layers. Heat a heavy skillet and melt butter or margarine in it. When
butter is hot, place the Cinnabon halves into the pan, gooey side down. Sear
until golden brown. Turn the halves over, and place the skillet in the oven.
Bake 8−10 minutes or until rolls are puffed up and golden. Serve with maple
syrup.
