🧾 Ingredients

For the Roll Ups

  • 8 fully cooked breakfast sausages (beef or chicken)

  • 2 tbsp sugar

  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

👩‍🍳 How to Make Sausage Stuffed French Toast Roll Ups

1. Prepare the Bread

  • Flatten each slice with a rolling pin so it rolls easily.

  • Place one sausage link at the edge of each slice.

  • Roll tightly and press to seal.

2. Make the Custard

In a shallow bowl, whisk together:

  • eggs

  • milk

  • sugar

  • cinnamon

  • salt

3. Cook the Roll Ups

  • Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat.

  • Dip each roll up in the egg mixture.

  • Place seam-side down into the skillet.

  • Cook 2–3 minutes per side, until golden, crisp, and cooked all around.

4. Serve

  • Enjoy warm with maple syrup, powdered sugar, or fresh berries.


🍴 Tips for Best Results

  • Use soft, fresh bread — it rolls without cracking.

  • Cook on medium heat to avoid burning the outside too quickly.

  • Keep rolls tight so they don’t open while frying.

  • Want sweeter? Add a cream-cheese filling.

  • Want spicier? Add chili flakes to the sausage.


🎨 Serving & Presentation Ideas

Make these roll ups extra special by:

  • Arranging them on a platter with berries for color.

  • Dusting lightly with powdered sugar.

  • Drizzling warm maple syrup on top.

  • Adding a small mint leaf for a fresh finish.

Perfect for brunch boards or holiday breakfasts!
