These mini French Toast Bites are stuffed with creamy nutella and Biscoff cookie butter. Dipped in french toast batter than, pan fried in butter and then tossed in a cinnamon-sugar coating. You absolutely need these fun to eat, bite-sized french toast dessert bites.
Usually you’ll find French toast bites recipes using King’s Hawaiian roll, like my French Toast Breakfast Sandwich Bites or my Peach Stuffed French Toast Bites . But in this version, we’ll be spreading slices of white bread with a chocolate hazelnut spread and cookie butter spread and frying them up like french toast.
Key Ingredients
White Bread – select a thick-sliced soft white bread. I used Nature’s Own Crafted.
Nutella – or your preferred brand of chocolate hazelnut spread
Biscoff Cookie Butter – there are other versions as well like Trader Joes Speculoos Cookie butter.
Butter – we’ll use butter for pan frying the french toast bites.
Cream – for the base of the french toast mixture. You could use milk, but my grandfather always swore by heavy cream for making french toast.
Eggs – this is also an essential ingredient for the french toast batter.
Cinnamon – used in both the batter and the cinnamon-sugary coating.
Sugar – granulated sugar is combined with cinnamon for tossing the french toast bites.
Vanilla extract – to add a yummy essence of vanilla.
How to Make Stuffed French Toast Bites
Spread a thin layer of one spread flavor (either nutella or cookie butter) onto one slice of bread. Top it with another slice of bread to make a sandwich.
Use a serrated knife to cut off all the crust, be gentle to avoid mashing the bread which will misshapen the french toast bites.
Repeat with the alternate flavor (if using both) so some sandwiches are the cookie butter variation and others are nutella.
Cut each of the sandwiches into 4 equal squares. In a large bowl whisk together all of the french toast batter ingredients.
Heat a large skillet to medium-low and melt butter in the skillet.
Dunk several french toast bites into the batter at a time and then place in the skillet. Cook in batches a few minutes per side until each side is golden brown.
Toss in the cinnamon mixture and serve warm.
How to Avoid Spillage?
To avoid the fillings from melting out while toasting, be sure not to overfill the bread with too much spread. A thin coating will do. It’s always best to use a non-stick skillet in the event a little of the spread does ooze out as it cooks, it should be a minimal amount and that’s normal.
