Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s start by rolling the slices of bread. I like to use a rolling pin to gently flatten each slice of bread, about a quarter of an inch thick. This makes it easier to roll them up and helps embrace the filling. Next, spread a light layer of softened butter over each slice. In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon, then sprinkle this delicious mixture generously over the buttered bread. This is when the magic truly begins!
