Introduction: Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast treat that combines savory sausage and fluffy, buttery crescent rolls. Perfect for a quick morning meal or weekend brunch, these bite-sized rolls are loaded with flavor and can be made in just a few simple steps. Whether you’re serving them to family, guests, or enjoying them yourself, they are sure to be a hit.
Ingredients:
1 can (8 oz) crescent roll dough
1/2 lb breakfast sausage (bulk sausage or sausage patties, crumbled)
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a blend)
1/4 cup diced onions (optional)
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
Salt and pepper to taste
1 egg (for egg wash, optional)
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
Cook the sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage (if using patties, crumble them as they cook) until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease. If desired, add onions, garlic powder, salt, and pepper during cooking for extra flavor.
Prepare crescent rolls: Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the crescent roll dough package (usually 375°F or 190°C). Unroll the crescent dough onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, separating the individual triangles.
Assemble the rolls: Place a small spoonful of the cooked sausage mixture onto the wide end of each crescent roll triangle. Top with a pinch of shredded cheese.
Roll and seal: Starting from the wide end, roll up each crescent roll tightly around the sausage and cheese. Pinch the edges to seal them.
Egg wash (optional): If you’d like a golden, glossy finish, beat the egg and brush it over the top of each roll before baking.
Bake: Bake the rolls according to the package instructions for the crescent dough, usually about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Remove the rolls from the oven, let them cool slightly, and serve warm. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

Description:
These Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls are a delightful combination of tender crescent rolls, savory breakfast sausage, and melted cheese. They’re easy to make and perfect for any breakfast or brunch gathering. With their buttery, flaky texture and flavorful filling, they’re sure to be a favorite for both adults and kids alike. These rolls are customizable and can be served on their own or with a side of fruit, eggs, or your favorite breakfast beverage.
Tips:
Use cooked sausage: If you’re short on time, you can use pre-cooked sausage or leftover sausage from breakfast.
Make ahead: You can prepare the rolls the night before and refrigerate them unbaked. In the morning, simply bake them directly from the fridge.
Cheese options: Feel free to experiment with different types of cheese, such as Swiss, pepper jack, or even cream cheese for a creamy twist.
Spicy sausage: If you like a bit of heat, opt for spicy sausage or add some hot sauce to the filling mixture.
Vegetarian option: Replace sausage with a vegetarian sausage or crumbled tofu for a meatless alternative.
Variations:
Bacon Crescent Rolls: Substitute the sausage for cooked, crumbled bacon for a smoky, savory option.
Veggie Crescent Rolls: Add sautéed vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, and mushrooms to the filling for a vegetarian or plant-based breakfast.
Sausage and Egg Crescent Rolls: Add scrambled eggs to the sausage and cheese mixture for a more substantial breakfast roll.
Correction:
If the rolls don’t seem to be cooking evenly or are still too doughy inside, ensure that the sausage is fully cooked and that you’re baking them long enough. You may need to extend the baking time by a few minutes based on your oven’s performance.
Enjoy:
Now, enjoy these warm and savory Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls with your favorite morning beverage, such as coffee, juice, or a latte. Perfect for a quick breakfast or a brunch spread, they are sure to be a hit at the table!
