Description
These Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups are a quick, satisfying way to start your day with a hearty breakfast. Combining fluffy scrambled eggs, savory sausage links, and melted cheddar cheese inside flaky crescent rolls, they make an ideal option for busy mornings.
Ingredients
5 eggs
1 can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
8 sausage links
4 slices Cheddar cheese
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs, reserving 2 tablespoons for brushing on the crescent rolls later.
Scramble the remaining eggs.
Unroll the dough on a work surface and separate into 8 triangles.
Cut each cheese slice in half and place one half on each triangle.
Top each with a spoonful of scrambled eggs and one sausage link.
Loosely roll up the triangles and place them on an ungreased cookie sheet.
Brush the tops with the reserved beaten eggs and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Bake for 15 to 18 minutes or until golden brown.
Notes
- Customize the Cheese: While cheddar gives a classic taste, other cheeses like mozzarella, Swiss, or pepper jack can be used to change up the flavor profile.
- Healthier Swaps: For a lighter option, consider using turkey sausage and reduced-fat cheese, or opt for whole-wheat crescent rolls.
- Storage and Reheating: These roll-ups can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days or frozen for up to a month. Reheat in the microwave for a quick option, or in the oven for a crispier finish.
- Avoid Overstuffing: Be careful not to overfill each crescent triangle, as it can cause the roll-ups to open during baking.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve these roll-ups with fresh fruit, yogurt, or a smoothie for a balanced breakfast. Pairing with coffee or tea makes for a complete, energizing meal.
