French toast rolled up with breakfast sausage in the center! Because wrapping french toast around sausage makes an everyday food special.
You cut the crusts off the bread then flatten them with your hands or a rolling pin. I prefer using my hands because they stay a little fluffy and are better at soaking up the egg. Using a rolling pin makes them super flat.
The flattened bread is rolled up with a cooked sausage link in the center and then dunked in egg mixed with milk and seasoned with french toast essentials – cinnamon and vanilla.
You cook them like regular french toast – in butter until browned on all sides. Then you get to stand back and watch as your family happily devours them and looks at you like you did something miraculous.
Because wrapping french toast around sausage makes an everyday food special and a whole lot more fun to eat.
Especially for kids who love using their hands – these were made for dunking.
That’s kind of the best. . .The dunking.

NOTES:
The recipe is really more method than precision. Soft and fluffy white or wheat bread works best, the kind that’s gummy when you smoosh it between your fingers.You cut the crusts off the bread then flatten them with your hands or a rolling pin.
