Ingredients
Scale
Sausage Roll-Ups
- 6 breakfast sausage links (fully cooked)
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Egg Mixture
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully preheat to ensure even baking.
- Prepare the egg mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Scramble the eggs: Heat butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook gently, stirring continuously, until the eggs are just set but still moist. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Prepare the crescent dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent roll dough onto a clean surface and separate it into individual triangles along the perforated lines.
- Assemble the roll-ups: Spoon a portion of the scrambled eggs onto the wide end of each dough triangle, then sprinkle a generous amount of shredded cheddar cheese on top. Place one cooked breakfast sausage link on each triangle.
- Roll the dough: Starting at the wide end, carefully roll the dough around the sausage, eggs, and cheese towards the pointed end, sealing as you go.
- Bake the roll-ups: Place the assembled roll-ups on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the crescent dough is golden brown and fully cooked.
- Serve and enjoy: Remove the roll-ups from the oven, let them cool slightly, then serve warm for a delicious and satisfying breakfast treat.
Notes
- You can substitute cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack for variation.
- Ensure the sausage links are fully cooked before assembling to avoid undercooking.
- For extra flavor, add chopped herbs like chives or parsley to the scrambled eggs.
- These roll-ups can be reheated in the oven or microwave for quick leftovers.
- Wrap tightly when rolling to prevent filling leakage during baking.
