  • Heat a large pan over medium heat and add a little butter. Make sure the pan isn't too hot to prevent the butter from burning.
  • Quickly dip each Hawaiian Roll into the custard and place it on the pan. Repeat with a few more rolls until the pan is filled but not overcrowded.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes, then flip each roll over and cook until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove from the pan and repeat with the remaining rolls.
  • Sprinkle the French toast with powdered sugar and drizzle with maple syrup. Optionally, serve with whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice for extra flavor.
