This family recipe dates back to the 1930s, when my grandmother started making her clever breakfast roll-ups. —Janet Abate, North Brunswick, New Jersey

1 tablespoon butter
3 cups cubed day-old bread

That’s because your supposed to fry it in a pan not the oven.

What is the oven temperature? Not mentioned in the directions. Will try at 350 and see how it goes.
