Description

Ingredients
Scale
Roll-Ups
- 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
- 8 cooked breakfast sausage links
Egg Batter
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Cooking & Serving
- Butter or oil, for cooking
- Maple syrup, for serving
Instructions
- Flatten Bread: Using a rolling pin, flatten each slice of white bread until it is thin and pliable, making it easier to roll tightly around the sausage.
- Roll Up: Place one cooked breakfast sausage link along the edge of each flattened bread slice and roll the bread tightly around the sausage to form roll-ups.
- Mix Egg Batter: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until fully combined into a smooth mixture.
- Dip Roll-Ups: Dip each sausage roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are thoroughly coated to absorb the batter.
- Cook: Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Place the coated roll-ups in the skillet and cook, turning frequently, until all sides are golden brown and the egg is cooked through, approximately 5 to 7 minutes.
- Serve: Serve the sausage French toast roll-ups warm with maple syrup on the side for dipping, enhancing their sweet and savory flavor combination.
Notes
- Removing the crusts from the bread helps it roll more easily without tearing.
- Use cooked sausage links to ensure the filling is fully cooked before rolling and frying.
- Turn roll-ups regularly during cooking to prevent burning and ensure even browning.
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of powdered sugar or cinnamon on top before serving.
- These roll-ups are best enjoyed fresh and warm but can be reheated gently in a skillet or oven.
