Ingredients
- 8 slices of bread (white or whole wheat)
- 8 breakfast sausage links
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
- Start by cooking the breakfast sausage links according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set them aside.
- While the sausages are cooking, remove the crusts from the slices of bread. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Take one slice of flattened bread and place a sausage link at one end. Roll it up tightly and secure it with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat with the remaining bread and sausages.
- In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Dip each rolled-up sausage in the egg mixture, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Place the rolled sausages in the skillet and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the toothpicks if used.
- Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
Notes
- This recipe can be customized with different types of sausage or bread.
