Preparation

Medium

Cut 2-day-stale bolillo rolls or sandwich bread into 0.7 or 1.1-inch wide slices. In a bowl, whisk egg whites to stiff peaks. Add egg yolks. Dip each bolillo roll slice into the egg mixture until soaked through. In a skillet, heat oil and fry bolillo roll slices until evenly golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve Gloria-style torrejas on a platter drizzled with honey and maple syrup.
