Ingredients
To create these delightful roll-ups, you’ll need a few simple ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 8 slices of white bread, crusts removed
- 8 breakfast sausage links, cooked
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- Butter for cooking
- Maple syrup for serving
If you’re looking to change things up a bit, you can substitute whole wheat bread for a healthier twist, or try flavored sausages for an extra kick.
Instructions
These roll-ups are as fun to make as they are to eat. Here’s how to bring a bit of that Sunday magic into your own kitchen:
- Start by flattening each slice of bread with a rolling pin until they are thin and easy to roll.
- Place a cooked sausage link at one end of each slice of bread and roll it up tightly. Set aside.
- In a shallow dish, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly.
- Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a dab of butter.
- Cook the roll-ups in the skillet, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown and crispy, about 6-8 minutes.
- Serve hot with a drizzle of maple syrup.
One tip my grandmother always shared was to listen for that perfect sizzle when the roll-ups hit the pan—it’s the sound of something special happening!
