Cooking Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 8 roll-ups
Ingredients:
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8 pieces)
4 large eggs
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese (or a blend of your choice)
8 fully cooked breakfast sausage links
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven:
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. -
Scramble the Eggs:
In a bowl, whisk the eggs with milk, salt, and pepper.
Heat butter in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook while gently stirring until the eggs are soft and just set. Remove from heat—they’ll finish cooking in the oven. -
Prepare the Crescent Dough:
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles. Place each triangle flat on the prepared baking sheet. -
Assemble the Roll-Ups:
Place a spoonful of scrambled eggs onto the wide end of each triangle.
Add a sausage link on top of the eggs, then sprinkle a bit of cheese.
Roll each triangle up, starting from the wide end, wrapping it around the sausage and sealing the tip. -
Bake:
Place the roll-ups seam side down on the baking sheet. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and the dough is cooked through. -
Cool and Serve:
Let them cool slightly before serving. Serve warm with ketchup, hot sauce, or a drizzle of maple syrup for a sweet-and-savory twist.
