Sausage Stuffed French Toast Rolls

Ingredients

Scale

Sausage Filling

  • 8 oz ground breakfast sausage, seasoned

Bread and Coating

  • 8 slices thick white sandwich bread, crusts removed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

For Cooking and Serving

  • 2 tablespoons butter or oil, for frying
  • Maple syrup or honey, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sausage Filling: Cook the breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking into small crumbles. Drain excess fat and set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Prepare the Bread: Trim the crusts from the white bread slices. Using a rolling pin, gently flatten each slice until thin but intact for easy rolling.
  3. Assemble the Rolls: Place about 2 tablespoons of cooked sausage on one edge of each flattened bread slice. Roll tightly to enclose the filling completely, securing with a toothpick if needed.
  4. Make the Egg Mixture: In a shallow bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, cinnamon, and nutmeg until well combined.
  5. Dip and Cook: Dip each roll in the egg mixture, coating all sides thoroughly. Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat, then cook rolls, turning frequently, until golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes.
  6. Serve Warm: Let the rolls cool slightly, then serve drizzled with maple syrup or honey, or with syrup on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • Use thick, soft white bread for best rolling and egg absorption.
  • Drain cooked sausage well to avoid soggy rolls and maintain crispiness.
  • Don’t overfill with sausage to prevent leakage during cooking.
  • Cook rolls on medium heat to cook through without burning.
  • For a healthier option, bake or air fry rolls instead of pan-frying.
