Ingredients
Units
Scale
Crescent Roll
- 1 can (8 ounces) refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 count)
Sausage and Eggs
- 4 breakfast sausage links (fully cooked)
- 3 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Cheese
- 3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Optional for Serving
- Chopped fresh parsley
- Salsa or hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat Oven – Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Eggs – In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat, pour in the eggs, and scramble gently until just set. Remove from heat.
- Cook Sausage – Cook sausage links according to package instructions, then slice each link in half lengthwise for easier rolling.
- Assemble Roll-Ups – Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. On the wide end of each triangle, add a spoonful of scrambled eggs, a piece of sausage, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
- Roll and Arrange – Roll up each crescent triangle, starting at the wide end and tucking the filling as you go. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake – Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and cooked through. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Serve – Optionally garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot with salsa or hot sauce.
Notes
- You can substitute breakfast sausage with turkey or plant-based sausage for a lighter option.
- For added flavor, try adding chopped bell peppers or green onions to the scrambled eggs.
- Leftovers can be cooled, wrapped, and refrigerated for up to 3 days—simply reheat in the microwave or oven.
- These roll-ups are freezer-friendly; wrap individually and freeze for up to 1 month.
