Ingredients
1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough (8-count)
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon milk
1/2 pound breakfast sausage
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 tablespoon butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon chopped chives (optional)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess grease and set aside.
3. Whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
4. Melt butter in a nonstick skillet over low heat. Add egg mixture and cook gently, stirring until softly scrambled. Remove from heat while slightly soft.
5. Unroll crescent dough and separate into 8 triangles.
6. Add scrambled eggs to the wide end of each triangle. Top with sausage and shredded cheese.
7. Roll each triangle from the wide end toward the point, enclosing the filling.
8. Place rolls seam-side down on prepared baking sheet.
9. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown.
10. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Do not overfill the dough to prevent leaking during baking.
Reheat in oven or air fryer for best texture.
Freeze individually wrapped rolls for up to 2 months.
