Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 6 slices white bread, crusts removed
  • 4 breakfast sausage links, pre-cooked and seasoned
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil for frying
  • Maple syrup (optional, for serving)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Remove crusts from bread slices for easy rolling. Cook breakfast sausage thoroughly if not pre-cooked, then allow it to cool slightly. Whisk together eggs, milk, and a dash of cinnamon in a shallow bowl to create the French toast soak.
  2. Flatten the Bread: Use a rolling pin to gently flatten each bread slice to about 1/4 inch thick, making it pliable and allowing it to soak up the egg mixture evenly without tearing.
  3. Roll Up the Sausage: Place a sausage link or a spoonful of sausage in one corner of the flattened bread slice. Roll tightly around the sausage, tucking the edges underneath to seal and prevent filling from escaping during cooking.
  4. Dip in Egg Mixture: Dip each roll-up into the egg and milk mixture, soaking enough to coat but not so much that the bread falls apart.
  5. Fry Until Golden: Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook roll-ups seam-side down first, turning occasionally, about 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through.
  6. Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar: While warm, roll the cooked French toast roll-ups in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar for a sweet, crunchy exterior.

Notes

  • Do not skip flattening the bread; it helps in rolling and soaking the egg mixture evenly.
  • Seal edges tightly to prevent sausage from leaking during cooking.
  • Ensure sausage is fully cooked before rolling to avoid raw spots.
  • Cook over medium heat to avoid burning and to cook the egg through properly.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
