Description
These Sausage-Stuffed French Toast Roll-Ups are a fun and delicious twist on traditional French toast. Tender bread slices are flattened and wrapped around fully cooked sausage links, then dipped in a sweet, cinnamon-spiced egg batter and griddled until golden brown. Perfect for a hearty breakfast or brunch, served warm with syrup.
Ingredients
Scale
Bread
- 10 slices bread
Sausage Filling
- 10 fully cooked sausage links
Egg Mixture
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Prepare Bread: Flatten each slice of bread using a rolling pin to create a thin, even surface. Remove crusts if desired for easier rolling and a neater appearance.
- Fill and Roll: Place one fully cooked sausage link at the edge of each flattened bread slice. Roll the bread tightly around the sausage to create neat roll-ups.
- Mix Egg Batter: In a shallow dish or blender, combine the eggs, milk, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and all-purpose flour. Mix well until the batter is smooth and well incorporated.
- Cook: Grease a griddle or large skillet over medium heat. Dip each bread roll-up into the egg batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Place the roll-ups seam side down on the griddle and cook them until they are golden brown on all sides, turning carefully to avoid unrolling.
- Serve: Serve the sausage-stuffed French toast roll-ups warm, ideally with maple syrup or your favorite breakfast toppings for added sweetness and flavor.
Notes
- Make sure sausage links are fully cooked before rolling to ensure food safety and ease of preparation.
- Removing crusts from bread helps with rolling and gives a smoother texture.
- Use a non-stick griddle or pan and grease it properly to prevent sticking and tearing of the roll-ups.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg to the egg mixture or sprinkle powdered sugar on top before serving.
- Can be made ahead by assembling and refrigerating before cooking; cook fresh when ready to serve.
