Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls

Step 1

Preheat the Oven:Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

Cook the Sausage:In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease and let it cool slightly.

Step 3

Prepare the Filling:In a bowl, mix the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 4

Assemble the Crescent Rolls:Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles.

Step 5

Place a spoonful of the sausage mixture on the wide end of each triangle. Roll up the dough around the filling and place on the prepared baking sheet, seam side down.

Step 6

Brush with Egg (Optional):Brush the tops of the crescent rolls with the beaten egg for a golden, shiny finish.

Step 7

Bake:Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and fully cooked.

Step 8

Serve:Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or a creamy breakfast gravy.
