Main Ingredients
- 10 slices bread
- 10 fully cooked sausage links
Custard Mixture
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Instructions
- Flatten the bread: Use a rolling pin or your hands to gently flatten each slice of bread, removing crusts if desired for easier rolling.
- Assemble the roll-ups: Place a sausage link at one end of a bread slice and carefully roll up tightly, sealing the edges.
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a shallow dish or blender, combine eggs, milk, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, and flour. Mix until smooth and well combined.
- Preheat the skillet: Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat and grease it generously with butter.
- Dip and cook: Gently dip each sausage roll-up into the egg mixture, ensuring all sides are coated. Place on the hot skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, turning gently, until golden brown and cooked through. Serve warm with syrup.
Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions: The egg mixture can be prepared up to 1 day in advance. Leftover cooked roll-ups can be stored in a sealed container for 1-2 days and reheated in a microwave, toaster oven, griddle, or air fryer.
- Freezing Instructions: Freeze leftovers in a freezer-safe container or bag, removing as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. Reheat in microwave, toaster oven, griddle, or air fryer.
- Variations: You can fill the bread with Nutella, cream cheese and strawberries, or peanut butter and banana for added flavor.
