Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 tube (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for greasing)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with butter or cooking spray.
- Cook Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease and set aside.
- Cook Eggs: In a separate pan, scramble the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook over low heat until just set, stirring occasionally. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare Crescent Rolls: Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles. Lay them flat on a clean surface.
- Assemble Rolls: In the center of each dough triangle, place a spoonful of cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and a generous amount of shredded cheese.
- Roll Up: Starting from the wide end of each triangle, roll it up tightly, sealing the edges to enclose the filling. Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Serve: Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy them warm for a delicious, savory breakfast or brunch.
Notes
- You can substitute the sausage for cooked bacon, ham, or turkey sausage for different variations.
- For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of garlic powder, onion powder, or hot sauce to the egg mixture.
- You can make these ahead of time and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain the crispiness.
