Description
These Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups are a quick and customizable morning meal made with crescent dough, savory sausage, fluffy scrambled eggs, and melty cheese—perfect for breakfast, brunch, or meal prep.
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough (8 count)
- 8 breakfast sausage links or 1/2 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter or oil (for cooking eggs)
- Optional: chopped herbs or hot sauce for extra flavor
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until fully browned. If using links, slice them once cooked.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
- Scramble the egg mixture in a lightly greased pan over medium heat until just set.
- Unroll the crescent dough and separate it into triangles.
- Place a spoonful of scrambled eggs, some sausage, and shredded cheese onto the wide end of each triangle.
- Roll each triangle up from the wide end to the point, enclosing the filling.
- Arrange roll-ups on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Try using bacon, ham, or plant-based sausage for variation.
- Add vegetables like bell peppers, onions, or spinach to the egg mixture.
- Use different cheeses like mozzarella, Swiss, or pepper jack for a flavor twist.
- To make mini roll-ups for parties, use half-sized crescent triangles.
- Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
