Breakfast
- 6 breakfast sausage links (fully cooked)
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon milk
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the roll-ups.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until fully blended for a creamy scramble.
- Scramble Eggs: Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently, until the eggs are just set but still moist.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the refrigerated crescent dough and separate it into triangles, ready to hold the filling.
- Assemble Roll-Ups: Spoon a portion of scrambled eggs onto each triangle, sprinkle evenly with shredded cheddar cheese, and place one cooked sausage link on top.
- Roll Up: Starting at the wide end of each triangle, carefully roll the dough around the sausage, eggs, and cheese to encase the filling completely.
- Arrange and Bake: Place each roll-up on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from oven, let cool slightly, then serve warm and enjoy your savory breakfast roll-ups.
Notes
- Ensure the sausage links are fully cooked before assembly to avoid undercooked meat.
- For extra flavor, you can sprinkle some herbs like chopped chives or parsley on the eggs before rolling.
- Feel free to substitute cheddar cheese with your favorite type, such as mozzarella or pepper jack.
- These roll-ups can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave for a quick breakfast.
- Make sure not to overcook the scrambled eggs; they should still be slightly soft for the best texture inside the roll-ups.
