Detailed Directions and Instructions
Cook the Sausage
Start by cooking the breakfast sausage links according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set aside.
Prepare the Bread
While the sausage is cooking, remove the crusts from the slices of bread. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread.
Make the Egg Mixture
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.
Roll the Sausage in Bread
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 sausage.
Cook the Roll-Ups
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 the Dish
Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
