- 6 breakfast sausages (links or patties, cooked and crumbled) - 6 slices of bread (white or whole grain) - 3 large eggs - 1/2 cup whole milk - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar - Butter (for frying) - Maple syrup (for serving) - Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting) For this recipe, I love using breakfast sausages for a savory kick. You can choose either links or patties based on your preference. The bread is the base for your roll-ups, so pick what you like best, whether it’s fluffy white bread or hearty whole grain. Next, the eggs and milk blend together to create a custard-like mixture. This is key for coating the roll-ups. The vanilla and cinnamon add warmth and sweetness, making every bite delightful. I usually add a tablespoon of sugar to balance the flavors perfectly. Butter is essential for frying the roll-ups. It gives them a golden color and a crispy texture. Finally, maple syrup is a must for serving. It brings everything together with its sweet, rich flavor. You can even dust the roll-ups with powdered sugar for a fun touch. Each ingredient plays a part in making Sausage French Toast Roll-Ups a hit. They are easy to make, fun to eat, and delicious. For the full recipe, check out the detailed instructions! Start by using a sharp knife to trim the crusts off each slice of bread. This step helps the bread roll better. Next, take a rolling pin and gently flatten each slice until it is about 1/4 inch thick. Flattening makes the bread pliable and easy to roll. Now, take about a tablespoon of the crumbled sausage and place it at one end of each flattened bread slice. Firmly roll the bread around the sausage. Tuck in the sides as you roll to make a secure wrap. If needed, use toothpicks to hold the roll-ups in place. Repeat this for all the slices until you have a tasty stack of filled roll-ups. In a medium bowl, crack the eggs. Whisk them with whole milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until smooth. In a large skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat, ensuring it coats the pan evenly. Carefully dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, covering it well. Place the roll-ups seam-side down in the skillet. Cook them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Once done, remove them from the skillet and put them on a plate. Enjoy these roll-ups with warm maple syrup for a perfect finish. For a special touch, sprinkle a bit of powdered sugar on top. For the complete recipe, check the Full Recipe section. For the best results, heat your skillet to medium. This keeps the roll-ups from burning while cooking. Melt one tablespoon of butter in the pan. The butter should bubble but not smoke. Cook each roll-up for about 2-3 minutes on each side. Look for a golden brown color to know they are done. To avoid sogginess, don't soak the bread too long in the egg mixture. Quickly dip each roll-up before placing it in the skillet. Ensure you roll the bread tightly around the filling. Tuck in the edges to keep the sausage in place. If needed, use toothpicks to help hold the shape. Serve your roll-ups hot for the best taste. Drizzle them with warm maple syrup. For a fun touch, dust them with powdered sugar. You can also add fresh berries for color. Arrange them nicely on a platter to impress your guests. Enjoy this dish for breakfast or brunch! {{image_4}} You can switch up the sausage and bread for fun. Try turkey sausage or plant-based options for a healthier twist. For bread, consider sourdough or even gluten-free bread. Each choice adds a new taste and texture to your roll-ups. Want to add more flavor? Mix in some shredded cheese like cheddar or mozzarella. You can also sprinkle fresh herbs like chives or parsley inside the roll-ups. These additions make the dish even tastier and more exciting. If you need a gluten-free meal, use gluten-free bread. For dairy-free options, swap whole milk with almond or oat milk. You can still enjoy these roll-ups without losing any flavor. These easy swaps help everyone enjoy this fun recipe. To store leftovers, place the roll-ups in an airtight container. Make sure they cool down first. Keep them in the fridge for up to three days. This helps keep the flavors fresh. You can also wrap them in plastic wrap for extra protection. For reheating, use the oven or a skillet. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the roll-ups on a baking sheet and cover them with foil. Heat for about 10-15 minutes. This keeps them warm without drying them out. If using a skillet, add a little butter and warm them on medium heat for a few minutes. This method keeps them crispy and tasty. You can freeze these roll-ups for future meals. First, let them cool completely. Then, wrap each roll-up tightly in plastic wrap. Place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can last for up to two months in the freezer. When you're ready to eat, thaw them in the fridge overnight. Reheat them using the oven or skillet as mentioned above. This way, you can enjoy this fun meal anytime! Yes, you can prepare these roll-ups ahead of time. Make the roll-ups and store them in the fridge. This keeps them fresh for up to 24 hours. Just remember to cook them right before you serve. This way, they stay warm and tasty for everyone. I prefer using white or whole grain bread. Both types work well and give a nice texture. White bread is soft and easy to roll. Whole grain adds a bit more flavor and nutrition. You can also try thicker bread, but it may not roll as easily. - General cooking and texture tips The roll-ups are ready when they are golden brown on all sides. You should cook each side for about 2-3 minutes. A crispy texture is key. If they feel firm to touch and have a nice color, they are done. You can also cut one open to check the inside. It should be warm and fully cooked. This blog post shared a fun recipe for Sausage French Toast Roll-Ups. We covered ingredients, step-by-step cooking, and handy tips.

Ingredients
  

6 breakfast sausages (choose either links or patties, cooked and crumbled)

6 slices of bread (white or whole grain, your choice)

3 large eggs

1/2 cup whole milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon granulated sugar

Butter (for frying)

Maple syrup (for serving)

Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Bread: Using a sharp knife, carefully trim the crusts off each slice of bread. Then, gently flatten the bread slices with a rolling pin until they are about 1/4 inch thick to make them pliable for rolling.

    Fill the Roll-Ups: Take a tablespoon of the crumbled sausage mixture and place it at one end of each flattened bread slice. Firmly roll the bread around the filling, tucking in the sides as you go to create a secure roll. If necessary, use toothpicks to hold the roll-ups in place. Repeat this process until all bread slices are filled and rolled.

      Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a medium-sized bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them together with the milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sugar until the mixture becomes smooth and fully combined.

        Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, melt a tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Make sure the butter is evenly coating the bottom of the pan.

          Dip and Cook: Carefully dip each prepared roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring it is coated evenly. Transfer the roll-ups to the skillet, placing them seam-side down. Cook each side until they are golden brown, which should take approximately 2-3 minutes per side.

            Serve: Once cooked, remove the roll-ups from the skillet and place them onto a serving plate. For an elegant touch, dust them lightly with powdered sugar, and serve drizzled generously with warm maple syrup.
