8 slices of bread (white, whole wheat, or brioche)
8 cooked sausage links (pork, turkey, or vegetarian)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract (optional)
Butter for frying
Maple syrup or powdered sugar for serving
Cook the Sausages: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage links until fully cooked. Set aside to cool slightly.
Prepare the Bread: Trim the crusts from the bread slices. Using a rolling pin, flatten each slice of bread.
Assemble the Roll-Ups: Place a cooked sausage link at one end of each flattened bread slice and roll tightly. Press the seam side down to seal.
Make the Egg Mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and vanilla extract.
Dip and Cook: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of butter. Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated, then place in the skillet. Cook, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden brown.
Serve: Remove from the skillet and serve warm with maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar.
