# Instructions:
01 -
Cook the breakfast sausage links according to the package instructions. Once cooked, set them aside.

While the sausages are cooking, remove the crusts from the slices of bread and use a rolling pin to flatten each slice.
03 -
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until well combined.

Take one slice of flattened bread and place a sausage link at one end. Roll it up tightly and secure with a toothpick if necessary. Repeat with the remaining bread and sausages.

Dip each rolled-up sausage in the egg mixture, ensuring it is fully coated.

In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the rolled sausages in the skillet and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the toothpicks if used.

Serve warm with maple syrup drizzled on top and a dusting of powdered sugar if desired.
