Sausage-Stuffed French Toast Roll-Ups
This quick and easy breakfast features sausage stuffed in flattened bread, dipped in an egg wash, and pan-fried until golden, perfect for busy mornings.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 8 slices slices of bread (white or whole wheat)
- 8 links breakfast beef sausage links
- 4 large large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon alcohol-free vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon butter (for cooking)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
Instructions
Preparation
- Cook the beef sausage links following package directions; set aside to cool slightly.
- While beef sausages cook, remove crusts from each bread slice and flatten with a rolling pin.
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla, and cinnamon until smooth.
- Place one beef sausage at the end of a flattened bread slice and roll tightly; secure with a toothpick if needed. Repeat for all beef sausages.
Cooking
- Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat.
- Dip each roll in the egg mixture so it’s fully coated.
- Fry rolls in the skillet, turning so every side browns evenly, about 3–4 minutes total. Remove toothpicks.
Serving
- Serve warm with maple syrup and an optional dusting of powdered sugar.
Notes
Cool completely, then place in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, microwave briefly (20–40 seconds) or warm in a 350°F oven for 8–10 minutes. For freezing, cool roll-ups on a tray, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 1 month; reheat from frozen at 375°F for 12–15 minutes. For quicker preparation, use pre-cooked beef sausage links and prepare the egg mixture ahead of time.
