These brunch-ready roll-ups feature soft bread filled with tangy raspberry cheesecake, dipped in cinnamon egg batter, and crisped to golden perfection. They’re quick, crowd-pleasing, and perfect for brunch, breakfast, or a sweet snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 slices soft white sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed and drained)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon (plus more for coating)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (for skillet)
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar (for coating)
  • Extra raspberries, whipped cream, or maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Lay out bread slices and trim off crusts. Flatten each slice with a rolling pin to about 1/4 inch thick.
  2. In a small bowl, blend cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Optionally, add a pinch of lemon zest.
  3. Gently fold in raspberries, mashing a few for color but keeping some whole.
  4. Spread about 1 tablespoon of cheesecake filling onto each bread slice. Roll up tightly, sealing the edge with a dab of filling. Place seam-side down.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, milk, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until frothy.
  6. Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp butter until foamy.
  7. Dip each roll-up quickly in the egg batter to coat all sides.
  8. Place roll-ups seam-side down in the skillet. Cook 2-3 minutes per side, turning with tongs, until golden brown and crisp. Add more butter as needed.
  9. Mix granulated sugar and 1/2 tsp cinnamon on a plate. Roll each cooked roll-up in cinnamon sugar while warm.
  10. Serve warm, topped with extra raspberries, whipped cream, or maple syrup if desired.

Notes

Dip bread quickly in batter to avoid sogginess. Roll tightly and cook seam-side down first to seal. For big batches, keep cooked roll-ups warm in a low oven. Variations include gluten-free, dairy-free, or swapping berries. Can be baked or air-fried for a different texture.
