14 French Toast Roll-Ups for Your Lazy Sunday Morning

Weekends are the perfect opportunity to sleep in a *little* later than normal, and spend some extra time making a leisurely breakfast. Healthy breakfast bowls are a great weekday option, but French toast is a go-to for when you’re craving something a little more… naughty. You already love it stuffed, but now we’re going to show you how you can wrap up all of your favorite ingredients into a glorious French toast roll-up. They’re perfect for dipping, and they can be sweet or savory (or both!). However you roll it, these 14 French toast roll-ups need to be in your weekend breakfast rotation.

1. Strawberry Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups: Maybe you dreamt you were vacationing in a romantic Italian village, but these French toast roll-ups are a delicious reality. They’re slathered with Nutella and ripe strawberries, and perfect for treating a special someone to breakfast in bed. (via Recipe Tin Eats)

2. Sticky Bun French Toast Roll-Ups: These may sound like an indulgent morning treat, but they’re actually quite healthful. Make with whole wheat or GF toast and stuff with nuts for a nutritious and tasty meal that gets your day started off on the right foot. (via Athletic Avocado)

3. French Toast Sausage Roll-Ups: Using fully cooked sausage links is the key to making this roll-up even quicker. The flavors are so nostalgic together, especially when dipped in maple syrup. The kiddos are definitely going to love these. (via Cinnamon Spice and Everything Nice)

4. Blueberry French Toast Roll-Ups: Anything rolled in cinnamon sugar is bound to be a winner. Try making an extra batch to freeze so you can have them on busy weekdays as well. (via Damn Delicious)

5. Pumpkin French Toast Roll-Ups: It doesn’t have to be October for you to make these pumpkin-filled delights; thankfully, canned pumpkin is accessible all year long. Now you can indulge that pumpkin spice craving whenever it strikes. (via RDelicious Kitchen)

6. Ham and Cheese French Toastie Roll-Ups: The best part about brunching at home (other than wearing your PJs all morning) is that you can make something that you probably won’t find at your go-to brunch spot. If you’ve always longed for a cross between French toast and hot ham and cheese, your wish has been granted. (via Recipe Tin Eats)

7. Gingerbread French Toast Roll-Ups: Cinnamon is standard in most French toast recipes. To take it up to gingerbread level, add ginger, allspice and cloves to the soaking mixture for a spicy, holiday-inspired flavor. You’ll want to add this to your Christmas Pinterest board. (via Cafe Delites)

8. Cookie Butter Roll-Ups: The cookie butter obsession is very real. You’re always looking for new ways to incorporate it into your meals, and this is the perfect opportunity. The cinnamon sugar exterior goes perfectly with the subtle spice of the cookie butter. (via A Bountiful Love)

9. Blueberry French Toast Roll-Ups With Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce: A blueberry jam filling plus a cream cheese dipping sauce makes these roll-ups taste like a slice of creamy cheesecake heaven. These are baked instead of pan fried, so there’s no babysitting involved either. (via Cooking Classy)

10. Banana Nutella French Toast Roll-Ups: If Nutella had been a thing back in Elvis’s day, it would have definitely been a go-to ingredient in his banana sandwiches. Make your own version of the king’s specialty with a dusting of powdered sugar on top and a quick dip of syrup. (via My San Fransisco Kitchen)

11. Chocolate and Marshmallow French Toast Roll-Ups: Anything with marshmallows and chocolate has to be amazing. Try grinding some graham crackers to roll them in for a fun s’mores twist. (via Del’s Cooking Twist)

12. Easy Cinnamon Roll French Toast Roll-Ups: Homemade cinnamon rolls can be quite the hassle to make. Now, when you get that craving, you can whip up these roll-ups that come together in only 15 minutes. Serve with extra cream cheese topping for dipping. (via Scrambled Chefs)

13. Bacon French Toast Roll-Ups: Bacon makes *everything* better. You could make these more savory and serve with a cheese sauce for dipping, or keep it sweet with maple syrup. Even served plain, these are French toast roll-ups everyone will love. (via Recipe Tin Eats)

14. Apple Butter French Toast Roll-Ups With Apple Butter Cream Cheese Dipping Sauce: These roll-ups have apple butter on the inside as well as an unbelievably delicious cream cheese mixture to dip them in. Eating them alongside a steaming cup of coffee is a great way to spend a gloomy Saturday morning in. (via Chocolate Moosey)

Nicole Kidman is, as the kids say, mothering. She's giving fans plenty of movies and TV shows to pick from while we wait for the next seasons of Big Little Lies and Nine Perfect StrangersA Family Affair, Expats, The Perfect Couple (and the AMC intro, of course). Her steamy drama Babygirl, which hit theaters on Christmas Day 2024, is mixing work and pleasure. Pour yourself a glass of wine for this one, folks.

Scroll down to learn more about Nicole Kidman's Babygirl — including when you can stream it on Max.

Where can you stream Babygirl?

A24

Babygirl will be streaming on Max starting April 25, 2025. That means you can watch THAT milk scene as many times as you want.

What is the plot of Babygirl?

A24

Babygirl Plot

In Babygirl, Nicole Kidman plays powerful CEO Romy, who's struggling to hold her perfect persona together. Her marriage to Jacob has never provided with much pleasure, despite the fact he's caring and artistic. But when Romy immediately feels drawn to a young intern named Samuel, the two begin a torrid affair.

Filming scenes with Harris Dickinson got so intense, Kidman said she literally had to take breaks. “There were times when we were shooting where I was like, ‘I don’t want to orgasm any more,'” she told the Sun. “Don’t come near me. I hate doing this. I don’t care if I am never touched again in my life!”

But the fact the movie was made by women empowered Kidman — and gave her a sense of freedom. "Doing this subject matter in the hands of the woman that wrote the script, that's directing it and is a really great actress herself — we became one in a weird way, which I'd never had with a director before," Kidman says in a statement. "When you're working with a woman on this subject matter, you can share everything with each other.”

"I really decided in the beginning, I want to make a sexual film, just as sexual as all these films that I've always admired so much," adds writer-director-producer Halina Reijn, "but now I'm going to do it completely through female eyes. What does that mean and what does that look like?”

A24

In our Brit + Co exclusive, Nicole Kidman revealed she "spent a lot of time in bed" with Harris while filming. (TBH, a job that requires you to hang out in bed sounds like a pretty good job to me).

"As soon as he walked in, I was like, 'Oh good, here's somebody who's gonna play with me," she says. "We spent a lot of time in bed. Hours would go by, and it was like you would step out of there and you would say, 'What just happened?'"

"From the moment [Samuel] sees her, he's attracted to her. He realizes there's someone at the height of their power," Harris adds. "There was an element of mystique that needed to be there for the exploration of the relationship."

When is the Babygirl release date?

A24

Babygirl Release Date

Babygirl made its premiere at the Venice Film Festival, and then opened in theaters on December 25, 2024.

Who's in the Babygirl cast?

A24

Babygirl Cast

The cast of Babygirl includes Nicole Kidman, Harris Dickinson, Sophie Wilde, and Antonio Banderas.

What has Nicole Kidman said about making Babygirl?

Amy Sussman/Getty Images

In an interview with Vanity Fair, Nicole Kidman revealed Babygirl is the most "exposing" film she's done because she's “made some films that are pretty exposing, but not like this.”

“It left me ragged," she says. "At some point I was like, I don’t want to be touched. I don’t want to do this anymore, but at the same time I was compelled to do it...This is something you do and hide in your home videos. It is not a thing that normally is going to be seen by the world.”

“I felt very exposed as an actor, as a woman, as a human being,” she continues. “I had to go in and go out like, I need to put my protection back on. What have I just done? Where did I go? What did I do?”

What does babygirl energy mean?

A24

"Babygirl" is a term of endearment that's usually applied to a man (you've probably heard it describe Pedro Pascal or Paul Mescal). When someone is giving babygirl energy, they're kind, cute, and disarming. And considering Babygirl plays with power dynamics, we might just find ourselves guessing who the "babygirl" in question is up until the very end.

Watch The 'Babygirl' Trailer Here!

A24

There were SO many moments in the Babygirl trailer that made our jaws drop here:

  • The thumb in the mouth
  • The pink skirt moment
  • NICOLE CRAWLING ON ALL FOURS?!
Yeah, this is one you won't wanna watch with your parents, friends. 🥵 And even Nicole agrees! At the December 2 Gotham Awards, when People asked who moviegoers should bring to the theater with them, "Whoever you want to, but you can also watch it alone." Tea.

Are you looking forward to seeing Nicole Kidman onscreen again? We might have to wait until December to see Babygirl, but there are plenty of incredible Fall Movies coming our way.

Andrew Garfield's relationship status is always a swoon-worthy topic. Whether he's gushing about how Emma Stone is like a shot of caffeine, he's getting flustered talking to Chicken Shop Date's Amelia Dimoldenberg, or he's kissing Demi Moore on the hand, this man is always making me blush. But it looks like he might not be single anymore if some recent outings with Monica Barbaro are any indication — including a post-Oscars party!

While neither Andrew nor Monica have spoken on the relationship rumors, a People source confirmed "they've been really lowkey and have been spending time together quietly"...and Monica shared a pretty funny moment with Amelia on the Oscars red carpet.

Here's what we know about those Andrew Garfield & Monica Barbaro relationship rumors.

March 16, 2025 — Andrew Garfield & Monica Barbaro are seen grocery shopping.

This duo definitely fanned the flames of those couple rumors when they were spotted grocery shopping in Malibu. A very realistic, domestic, and relatable Sunday! I also went grocery shopping this day, so it looks like we were on the same page ;).

Andrew wore a white tee and jeans while Monica looks cozy in a white tank and green cardigan. Both wore baseball caps. "I like that they are humble and buy the same TP as me," one Instagram user commented. Same.

March 2, 2025 — Andrew Garfield & Monica Barbaro attend an Oscar afterparty together.

After the Oscars on March 2, Monica Barbaro and Andrew Garfield left the Vanity Fair after party together...and showed up to Beyoncé and Jay-Z's after party. No big deal! Monica wore a strapless gown with gorgeous teardrop jewel detail while Andrew looks dapper in a deep gray suit.

They also happened to arrive at the Oscars red carpet at the same time...and Monica was sitting in Andrew's eye line the whole night. What a coincidence!

February 2025 — Monica Barbaro & Andrew Garfield attend Jonathan Bailey's play.

The two went viral on February 20 when they showed up to Jonathan Bailey's Richard II at the Bridge Theatre, and I'm obsessed with how locked in he is on their conversation. This man is an attentive listener if I've ever seen one!

January 2025 — Andrew Garfield & Monica Barbaro are photographed together.

Andrew and Monica were first seen together at W magazine's Best Performances party, alongside Eddie Redmayne and W's editor-at-large Lynn Hirschberg, in LA. They were already getting cozy!

What do you think about Andrew Garfield & Monica Barbaro? I'm personally obsessed. Stay tuned for the latest news on this low-key couple! And check out Zoë Kravitz & Noah Centineo Fuel Dating Rumors After Leaving Another Party Together because Andrew & Monica weren't the only ones hanging this month 👀.
