Golden Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls 🌭🥐
Start your morning with these warm, flaky, and cheesy sausage crescent rolls. They’re quick to prepare, packed with flavor, and perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even as a snack on the go.
Ingredients
(Makes 8 rolls)
1 can (8 pieces) refrigerated crescent roll dough
8 breakfast sausage links, cooked and allowed to cool
1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (optional for extra richness)
1 egg
1 tablespoon milk
Directions
Step 1: Prepare the Oven
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking tray with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 2: Shape the Dough
Carefully open the crescent dough package and separate it into the pre-cut triangle pieces.
Step 3: Add the Filling
Place one cooked sausage link on the wider side of each dough triangle. If you like it extra cheesy, sprinkle some shredded cheddar on top.
Step 4: Roll Them Up
Starting from the wide edge, roll the dough tightly around the sausage until it reaches the pointed tip. Press the edges gently to keep everything sealed.
Step 5: Arrange on Tray
Transfer the rolled crescents onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each one.
Step 6: Make the Egg Wash
In a small bowl, mix together the egg and milk until smooth. Brush this mixture over the tops of the rolls to give them a shiny golden crust.
Step 7: Bake
Place the tray in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed up and beautifully golden brown.
Step 8: Serve and Enjoy
Take them out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes before serving. Best enjoyed warm with ketchup, honey mustard, or your favorite dipping sauce. ✨
