Steps to Make It
- Start by preheating your oven to 375 °F. This will ensure your rolls bake evenly and come out perfectly golden.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until it’s browned and crumbly, about 5-7 minutes. The aroma will fill your kitchen, making it hard to wait!
- While the sausage is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk them together with a pinch of salt and pepper. This will add flavor to your filling.
- Once the sausage is cooked, pour the whisked eggs into the skillet. Stir gently until the eggs are scrambled and just set, about 3-4 minutes. You want them fluffy and bright yellow.
- Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. The cheese will melt into the warm mixture, creating a deliciously gooey filling.
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Place a generous spoonful of the sausage and egg mixture at the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll the dough up, starting from the wide end, and tuck the ends in to seal. Place each roll on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed up. The smell will be irresistible!
- Let the rolls cool for a few minutes before serving. They’re best enjoyed warm, but they also make great leftovers.
- Serve these rolls with your favorite breakfast sides, like fresh fruit or a light salad for a complete meal.
Make It Perfect
- For extra flavor, try adding diced bell peppers or onions to the sausage while it cooks.
- If you have leftover filling, it makes a great omelet for the next day!
- These rolls can be frozen after baking. Just reheat them in the oven for a quick breakfast.
Mix It Up
- Swap the sausage for diced ham or cooked bacon for a different twist.
- Add some spinach or kale to the egg mixture for a veggie boost.
Perfect Partners
