Ingredients
To make these delightful roll-ups, you’ll need:
- 8-10 breakfast sausages (pork, chicken, or plant-based work great)
- 8-10 slices of white or wheat sandwich bread (soft and fluffy for easy rolling)
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A splash of vanilla extract
- Butter (for greasing the pan)
- Maple syrup (for serving)
How to Make French Toast Sausage Roll Ups :
Step 1: Cook the Sausages
Cook the breakfast sausages according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set them aside to cool slightly.
Step 2: Prepare the Bread
While the sausages are cooking, trim the crusts off the slices of bread. Flatten each slice with your hands or a rolling pin to make it pliable for rolling.
Step 3: Make the Egg Mixture
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract. This mixture will coat the bread and give it that classic French toast flavor.
Step 4: Assemble the Roll Ups
Place a cooked sausage at the edge of a flattened bread slice and roll it up tightly. Trim the ends of the bread to fit the sausage if you prefer, or leave them as is for a rustic look.
Step 5: Cook the Roll Ups
- Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium heat and add a pat or two of butter to grease the pan.
- Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, making sure it’s fully coated. Let any excess drip off before placing it in the pan.
- Cook the roll-ups in the skillet, turning them with tongs to brown all sides evenly. This should take about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Transfer the cooked roll-ups to a plate and serve immediately with maple syrup for dipping. For a touch of sweetness, dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Tips for Perfect French Toast Sausage Roll Ups :
- Use Soft Bread: Soft, fluffy bread rolls up easily and cooks evenly. Avoid artisan or crusty bread.
- Keep the Sausages Warm: Place cooked sausages in a low oven to keep them warm while preparing the roll-ups.
- Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Cook in batches if necessary to ensure even browning.
- Experiment with Fillings: Try adding a sprinkle of shredded cheese or a smear of cream cheese before rolling for a savory twist.
FAQs About French Toast Sausage Roll Ups :
1. Can I Make These Roll-Ups Ahead of Time?
Yes! Prepare and cook the roll-ups as directed, then store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or in the oven at 350°F until warmed through.
2. Can I Freeze French Toast Sausage Roll-Ups?
Absolutely! Freeze cooked roll-ups in a single layer on a baking sheet. Once frozen, transfer them to a freezer bag and store for up to 2 months. Reheat directly from frozen in a 375°F oven for 10-12 minutes.
3. Can I Use a Different Type of Sausage?
Of course! Chicken, turkey, or plant-based sausages all work wonderfully in this recipe.
4. What Can I Use Instead of Maple Syrup?
Honey, fruit preserves, or a dusting of powdered sugar are great alternatives to maple syrup.
