Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein Ingredients:
- 2 sausage links or 1 cup sausage crumbles
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional)
Pastry Ingredient:
- 1 package (8 ounces / 226 grams) crescent roll dough
Seasoning and Enhancing Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional)
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Warm the cooking environment to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a parchment-lined baking tray for optimal cooking conditions.
- Transform sausage into a perfectly crisp and flavorful component by browning thoroughly in a skillet, ensuring complete cooking and rich caramelization.
- Create silky scrambled eggs by whisking with subtle seasoning, then gently cooking in a pan until achieving a soft, pillowy texture with delicate curds.
- Carefully unfurl crescent dough into individual triangular sections, positioning each with a strategic layer of fluffy eggs, savory sausage, and optional melty cheese.
- Craft each roll-up by gently wrapping ingredients within the dough triangle, starting from the broader edge and tucking ingredients securely inside.
- Transfer assembled roll-ups onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring slight separation between each piece to promote even browning and crisp edges.
- Slide tray into preheated oven and monitor until pastry transforms into a golden, appetizing shade, typically requiring 12-15 minutes of precise baking time.
Notes
- Customize sausage choice by using turkey, chicken, or plant-based sausage for healthier alternatives that still pack delicious flavor.
- Ensure even cooking by cutting sausage links into smaller pieces to distribute heat uniformly across the roll-ups.
- Prevent soggy bottoms by patting scrambled eggs dry with paper towels before adding to crescent dough, keeping the texture crisp and flaky.
- Make ahead and freeze these roll-ups for quick weekday breakfasts by wrapping individually in foil after cooling completely, then reheating in oven or microwave when ready to eat.
