  1. These were really good but very sweet. I think I’ll skip rolling them in the cinnamon sugar mixture after they are done cooking. But, hubby says I can make these again! Lol 🙃 thank you!

  2. Can you use normal bread because I do not have white bread?
    And do the eggs have to be big?

    Reply

    1. Hi Adelaide! By normal bread, do you mean wheat bread? Yes, of course you can, just keep in mind that white bread is typically softer and less likely to tear when rolling. If you don’t have large eggs, you may need an extra egg to make enough to dredge the bread in. Hope this helps! Enjoy!

  3. Hello I was wondering what can I do to substitute brown sugar because I don’t have any. Should I just use regular sugar again or…
