Ingredients
Scale
Roll-Ups
- 8 slices soft sandwich bread, crusts removed
- 8 cooked breakfast sausage links
Egg Mixture
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
For Cooking and Serving
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Maple syrup or powdered sugar, for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the bread: Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice of bread, making it easy to roll tightly around the sausage links.
- Assemble roll-ups: Place one cooked breakfast sausage link at one end of each flattened bread slice, then roll the bread tightly around the sausage.
- Make egg batter: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, vanilla extract, and granulated sugar until well combined.
- Heat skillet and butter: Warm the unsalted butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted and sizzling slightly.
- Dip and cook roll-ups: Dip each bread roll-up completely into the egg mixture, coating all sides thoroughly. Place each roll-up seam-side down in the hot skillet to prevent unrolling.
- Pan-fry roll-ups: Cook for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, turning carefully, until the roll-ups are golden brown and crispy all around.
- Serve: Remove from skillet and serve warm, drizzled with maple syrup or dusted with powdered sugar for a sweet finish.
Notes
- For a savory variation, add shredded cheddar cheese inside the bread before rolling up the sausage.
- Prepare the roll-ups ahead of time and keep refrigerated, then cook fresh in the morning for convenience.
