Ingredients

Scale

Sausage & Egg Filling

  • 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
  • 4 large eggs
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste

Dough & Cheese

  • 1 (8 oz) package crescent roll dough (or gluten-free crescent rolls)
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or pepper jack)
  • Butter, melted (optional, for brushing on top)

Seasonings & Optional Add-Ins

  • Your choice of herbs (chives, parsley, basil) for mixing in or garnish
  • Optional: chopped jalapeños or hot sauce for spice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Sausage and Eggs: Cook the ground sausage in a skillet over medium heat, breaking it up until fully browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat and set aside. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, and any desired herbs or spices. Scramble the eggs gently in a non-stick pan until just set but still soft. Combine the cooked sausage and eggs while warm for best flavor.
  2. Roll Out the Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a clean surface. Separate the dough into individual triangles as indicated on the package; these triangles will form the base for each roll.
  3. Assemble the Rolls: On each dough triangle, spoon a generous amount of the sausage and scrambled egg mixture. Sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the filling. Carefully roll each triangle from the wide end toward the pointed tip, tucking the edges underneath to seal the filling inside.
  4. Bake to Perfection: Place the assembled rolls on a parchment-lined baking sheet. If desired, brush the tops lightly with melted butter to promote a golden, glossy finish. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the dough is puffed up and golden brown.
  5. Enjoy Warm: Remove the rolls from the oven and allow them to cool slightly so the filling sets, preventing spills while keeping them warm and cozy. Serve garnished with fresh herbs or your favorite toppings if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh eggs and high-quality sausage for the best flavor.
  • Do not overcook the eggs; keep them soft and tender for creamy texture.
  • Seal the dough edges firmly to prevent filling leakage during baking.
  • Adjust cheese amounts to your preference—extra cheese makes the rolls more gooey and delicious.
  • Rotate the baking sheet halfway through cooking to ensure even baking.
