Main Ingredients

12 links breakfast sausage links (pre-cooked or raw) Pre-cooked makes for a faster assembly, but raw adds a fresh, juicy flavor.
12 slices sandwich bread (crusts removed) Use soft white or whole grain—both options work beautifully.
3 large eggs Creates the rich custard for coating the rolls.
1/2 cup milk Can substitute almond or oat milk for a dairy-free version.
1 tsp vanilla extract Elevates the sweetness and aroma.
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon Enhances the sweetness and complements the sausage.
2-3 tbsp butter (for cooking) More butter equals better flavor!
to taste maple syrup (for serving) The perfect companion for drizzling.
optional powdered sugar for dusting Adds a touch of sweetness and elegance to presentation.

Method

Cooking the Sausages

If using raw sausages, cook according to package directions until fully done. Set aside to cool slightly.

Preparing the Bread

Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread for tighter rolls.
Place a cooked sausage at one end and roll up tightly.

Making the Egg Mixture

In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth.

Dipping and Cooking

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and melt 1 tbsp of butter.
Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, coating all sides, and place in the skillet seam-side down.

Frying

Cook 2–3 minutes per side, turning to brown evenly and adding more butter as needed.

Serving

Dust with powdered sugar if desired and serve warm with maple syrup.

Notes

For added flavor, mix in some grated cheese, or use gluten-free bread if needed. Leftovers can be reheated or frozen.
