Method

Step 1: Cook the Sausages

Cook the chicken breakfast sausages in a skillet over medium heat until fully cooked and lightly browned. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Bread

Remove the crusts from the bread slices. Use a rolling pin to gently flatten each slice into a thin rectangle.

Step 3: Roll the Sausage

Place one cooked sausage at one end of each bread slice. Roll the bread tightly around the sausage and gently press the seam to seal.

Step 4: Make the Batter

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until smooth.

Step 5: Dip the Roll-Ups

Dip each roll-up into the egg mixture, coating all sides evenly without soaking too long.

Step 6: Cook the Roll-Ups

Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Place the roll-ups seam-side down and cook, turning gently, until all sides are golden brown—about 2–3 minutes per side.

Step 7: Finish and Serve

Remove from the skillet and place on a plate. Dust lightly with powdered sugar if desired.
