Looking for an easy breakfast or after school snack? Sausage Wrapped Cinnamon Rolls with drizzled icing uses only two ingredients and will have kids and adults raving. Pre-cooked sausage and pre-made cinnamon rolls get breakfast or snack time wrapped up within 15 minutes.
I made these with my 12-year-old in mind. Like most kids his age I’m sure, he always comes home from school starving! Like, eat us out of house and home starving. I feel like sometimes I’m letting him down with no real good alternatives to ‘grab a yogurt’.
Since he loves to dip sausage into his syrup anytime I make my Swedish pancakes or even Pigs In a Blanket, it seemed like this recipe would be a no-brainer. Sweet cinnamon rolls wrapped around savory sausage then baked to perfection and drizzled with icing. Yes, it did go over just as expected. He loved them.
Not only is this breakfast really easy, but it can also be made in several different ways. Using different sausage and cinnamon roll combinations you can really change it up.

My kids go crazy over cinnamon rolls, now we add sausage.. OMG.
Maira, yes it sure does take them to the next level!
This was a really interesting recipe. I don’t have kids so I don’t really have a “kid-friendly” food mindset, so I wouldn’t ever have thought of this. Yet this is so brilliant!
Thank you so much Eva!!
