There is something about this classic orange and chocolate combination which never fails to delight you and is surely a winter treat. And what better holiday flavors can you get without orange and chocolate isn’t it?
If you have been reading my recipes and posts you must have known by now that whenever it comes to breakfast I want something interesting, flavorful and one that tickles those tastebuds! And that’s when I came up with this amazingly delicious recipe for Orange Chocolate French Toast Roll-ups. Okay, I’ve to confess that I simply Love .. LOOVVEE… LOOOVVVEEE French toasts! There was a time when my breakfast was only French Toast and nothing else (can you believe that?) and I never got tired of it. Well, that’s true) even today I love having them.
This recipe for Nutella Stuffed French Toasts that I posted some time ago, had been an amazing recipe discovery because everyone enjoyed having those French Toasts. This time I wanted to do something different with the french toasts and that’s when I came across this recipe for Strawberry Nutella French Toast Roll-ups on Nagi’s blog and that’s when it struck me why not try this with Oranges.
Fortunately fresh Oranges are in abundance these days and when you have home-grown oranges what better thing can you ask for. So this is how this recipe came into existence. When it comes to flavors it already has that classic combination of chocolate and orange but when the chocolate is Nutella it definitely enhances its flavor. Secondly, the cinnamon sugar coating on the top makes it a close cousin of cinnamon rolls and it tastes just like doughnuts!
In short, this is not just a breakfast it’s BREAKFAST DESSERT!
So if you are looking for a fancy breakfast or want to treat your loved ones with that special breakfast try out this recipe and impress everyone. This also makes an amazing item for brunch as well and that too in just no time at all.
