Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can of refrigerated crescent roll dough
  • 1 pound of breakfast sausage
  • 1 cup of shredded cheese (your choice)
  • 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
  • 1 egg (for the egg wash)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This ensures that the crescent rolls will bake evenly.

Step 2: Prepare the Baking Sheet

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent the rolls from sticking.

Step 3: Cook the Sausage

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

Step 4: Unroll the Crescent Rolls

Carefully unroll the crescent roll dough, separating it into triangles as indicated on the package.

Step 5: Add Sausage and Cheese

Place a spoonful of cooked sausage on the thick end of each triangle. Top it with shredded cheese.

Step 6: Roll Up the Crescents

Starting from the thick end, roll the dough towards the point, enclosing the sausage and cheese filling.

Step 7: Arrange on Baking Sheet

Place the rolled crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between them for expansion.

Step 8: Bake the Rolls

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown.

Step 9: Cool and Serve

Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
