🍞 French Toast with Sausage Links 🍴
A classic breakfast dish with crispy French toast, sweet syrup, and savory sausage links. Perfect for a weekend breakfast or brunch!
📌 Ingredients:
For the French Toast:
4 slices of thick-cut bread (preferably day-old or brioche)
2 large eggs
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp sugar (optional)
1 tbsp butter (for frying)
Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Maple syrup (for serving)
For the Sausage Links:
4-6 breakfast sausage links (your choice of pork, chicken, or turkey)
1 tbsp olive oil (or butter, for frying)
🍽 Instructions:
Prepare the Sausage Links:
In a skillet over medium heat, add a bit of oil or butter.
Add the sausage links to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Make the French Toast:
In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sugar (if using).
Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat and add butter to coat the pan.
Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
Cook the bread slices in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy.
Serve:
Once the French toast is cooked, place it on a plate and dust with powdered sugar.
Serve with the cooked sausage links on the side.
Drizzle with maple syrup for a perfect finish.
👩🍳 Pro Tip: For an extra touch, you can add a dollop of whipped cream or fresh fruit on top of the French toast for added flavor!
