Description
Sausage French Toast Roll-Ups are a delicious and fun twist on classic French toast. Tender slices of bread are flattened and wrapped around savory cooked sausage links, then dipped in a cinnamon-spiced egg mixture and pan-fried until golden brown. Served warm with maple syrup, they make a perfect hearty breakfast or brunch treat.
Ingredients
Scale
Roll-Ups
- 8 slices white bread, crusts removed
- 8 cooked breakfast sausage links
- Butter or oil, for cooking
Egg Batter
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For Serving
- Maple syrup
Instructions
- Flatten Bread: Using a rolling pin, flatten each bread slice until it becomes thin and pliable, making it easier to roll around the sausage.
- Roll Up: Place one cooked sausage link at the edge of each flattened bread slice and tightly roll the bread around the sausage to secure it.
- Mix Egg Batter: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Dip Roll-Ups: Dip each sausage-filled roll-up thoroughly into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are fully coated.
- 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 cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Serve: Remove the roll-ups from the skillet and serve warm, accompanied by maple syrup for dipping.
Notes
- Ensure bread slices are flattened well to avoid tearing when rolling.
- You can substitute breakfast sausage links with other cooked sausages or even breakfast bacon strips.
- Adjust the cinnamon amount to your preference for sweetness and spice.
- Serve immediately for best taste and texture.
- Use a non-stick skillet to prevent sticking and make flipping easier.
