Made Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls


Ingredients

  • 1 (8-count) can refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 8 cooked breakfast sausage links (pork, turkey, or plant-based)
  • 4 slices of cheese (American, cheddar, or your favorite), cut in half
  • 2 eggs (optional, for brushing and serving)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cooking spray or parchment paper

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven:
    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.
  2. Prepare Dough:
    Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforated lines.
  3. Add Filling:
    Place half a slice of cheese on each triangle, then place one cooked sausage link on top of the cheese near the wide end.
  4. Roll It Up:
    Roll each crescent starting from the wide end and rolling toward the narrow tip, wrapping the sausage and cheese inside.
  5. Optional Egg Wash:
    For a golden finish, beat one egg and lightly brush the tops of the rolls with the egg wash.
  6. Bake:
    Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and fully cooked.
  7. Serve:
    Let cool slightly before serving. Optionally, serve with scrambled eggs or dipping sauces like ketchup or mustard.

Let me know if you want a version with added flavors (like herbs, spicy sausage, or maple glaze)!
