Ingredients

• 12 fully cooked breakfast sausage links
• 12 slices soft white or brioche bread
• 3 large eggs
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)
• 1/2 cup maple syrup (for dipping)

1. Step 1: Trim the crusts off each bread slice and flatten with a rolling pin.
2. Step 2: Place a sausage link on the edge of each slice and roll tightly. Set aside seam-side down.
3. Step 3: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
4. Step 4: Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, coating all sides.
5. Step 5: Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter.
6. Step 6: Cook the roll-ups seam-side down first, turning to brown all sides until golden.
7. Step 7: Serve warm with maple syrup for dipping.

Tips & Variations

• Use soft bread like brioche or sandwich bread so it rolls easily without cracking.
• Don’t over-soak the roll-ups in the egg mixture—they just need a quick dip.
• Try adding a sprinkle of shredded cheese inside the roll for extra flavor.
• Swap maple syrup for honey or fruit preserves for a different dipping option.

Storage

Store any leftover roll-ups wrapped tightly in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze individually wrapped roll-ups and reheat in an air fryer for best texture before serving. Reheat gently to keep the bread from becoming soggy.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use raw sausage instead of cooked links?

It’s best to use fully cooked breakfast sausage links to ensure the roll-ups cook evenly without undercooked meat inside. If using raw sausage, cook it thoroughly before rolling.

What bread works best for these roll-ups?

Soft white bread or brioche are ideal because they are easy to roll and won’t crack. Avoid dense or very crusty breads for best results.

Breakfast Sausage Roll-Ups

• 12 fully cooked breakfast sausage links
• 12 slices soft white or brioche bread

Egg Mixture

• 3 large eggs
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Cooking & Serving

• 2 tablespoons butter (for frying)
• 1/2 cup maple syrup (for dipping)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Bread: Trim the crusts off each bread slice and use a rolling pin to flatten them thinly. This makes the bread pliable and easy to roll around the sausage.
2. Roll the Sausage: Place one cooked sausage link at the edge of each flattened bread slice and roll tightly around it. Set each roll-up seam-side down on a plate to hold its shape.
3. Mix the Egg Wash: In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
4. Coat the Roll-Ups: Quickly dip each sausage roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are coated but do not soak for too long to prevent sogginess.
5. Heat the Pan: Warm a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it sizzles gently.
6. Fry the Roll-Ups: Place roll-ups seam-side down in the skillet first to seal them, then cook, turning regularly to evenly brown all sides until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
7. Serve Warm: Transfer the cooked roll-ups to a serving plate and serve immediately with warm maple syrup for dipping.

Notes

• Use soft bread like brioche or sandwich bread for easy rolling without cracking.
• Do not over-soak roll-ups in the egg mixture; a quick dip is sufficient for coating.
• Leftover roll-ups can be frozen individually wrapped and reheated in an air fryer to restore crispiness.
