Ingredients (Makes 8 rolls)
- 1 pound bulk breakfast sausage
- 1 tube (8 oz) refrigerated crescent rolls
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or cheddar for extra flavor)
Instructions
1. Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
2. Brown the Sausage:
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until fully browned and crumbled. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.
3. Prep the Dough:
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles along the perforated lines. Lay them flat on a clean surface or lightly floured board.
4. Fill and Roll:
Add a spoonful of cooked sausage and a sprinkle of shredded cheese to the wide end of each triangle. Starting from the wide end, roll the dough toward the point, encasing the filling. Pinch the edges slightly if needed.
5. Arrange and Top:
Place the crescent rolls seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. If you like them extra cheesy, sprinkle more shredded cheese on top before baking.
6. Bake to Golden Perfection:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15–18 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serving Ideas & Tips
- Serve with a side of scrambled eggs, fruit salad, or hot coffee
- Swap mozzarella for pepper jack if you like a spicy kick
- Add a spoonful of cream cheese to the filling for extra richness
- These reheat beautifully in the oven or air fryer!
Storage Tips
Let any leftovers cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. To freeze, wrap individually in foil or plastic wrap and place in a zip-top bag. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven for best results!
