Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 pieces)
- 4 large eggs
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or preferred cheese)
- ½ lb cooked breakfast sausage (crumbled or sliced)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp butter or oil (for scrambling eggs)
- Optional: chopped herbs, sautéed veggies, hot sauce
Topping (optional):
- 1 egg (for egg wash)
- Sesame seeds or chopped parsley
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Set oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Scramble Eggs: Whisk eggs with salt and pepper. Heat butter in a skillet and scramble eggs until just set. Remove from heat.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles.
- Assemble Rolls: On each triangle, layer scrambled egg, sausage, and cheese. Add optional veggies or herbs.
- Roll and Seal: Roll dough from wide end to point. Pinch edges to seal and place seam-side down on baking sheet.
- Add Toppings: Brush with egg wash and sprinkle sesame seeds or herbs if desired.
- Bake: Bake for 15–18 minutes until golden brown and puffed. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Use pre-cooked sausage to save time.
- Don’t overcook eggs—they’ll finish baking inside the roll.
- Crescent dough is easiest, but puff pastry or biscuit dough works too.
- Freeze baked rolls individually and reheat in oven or microwave.
- Customize with bacon, veggies, or plant-based alternatives.
- For air fryer: cook at 375°F (190°C) for 10–12 minutes.
