French Toast Roll Up
Creamy Maple Dipping Sauce
Directions
1.
For the sauce, melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
2.
Whisk in 1/2 cup maple syrup and 1/4 cup heavy cream. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10–12 minutes, whisking occasionally, until slightly thickened. Cover and set aside to keep warm.
3.
For the roll ups, Trim the crusts from 8 slices of sandwich bread. Use a rolling pin to flatten each slice evenly.
4.
Place one fully cooked Smithfield sausage link along the edge of each slice. Roll tightly and press the seam to seal.
5.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 eggs, 1/4 cup milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
6.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, then place seam-side down in the skillet. Cook for 1–2 minutes per side, until golden brown all around.
7.
Sprinkle with powdered sugar and a bit of fresh orange zest. Serve warm with the maple buttercream sauce for dipping or drizzling.
