Cook the breakfast sausage links according to package directions, then set aside.

Flatten each slice of bread with a rolling pin and trim crusts. Place a sausage link at one end and roll tightly.

In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon until combined.

Heat a non-stick skillet and melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Dip each roll-up in the egg mixture, then place seam-side down in the skillet.

Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Add more butter as needed.

Dust cooked roll-ups with powdered sugar if desired and serve with maple syrup.
