Sausage And Egg Roll Ups Recipe
Make Sausage And Egg Roll Ups Recipe for flaky, cheesy breakfast rolls packed with sausage and soft scrambled eggs.
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 large eggs, whisked
- 1 (8 ounce) package crescent dough
- 4 slices cheddar cheese, cut in half
- 8 cooked breakfast sausage links
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and prepare the baking surface
Preheat the oven to 375°F and line a rectangular baking sheet with a single sheet of crinkled parchment paper, or lightly grease it if you prefer. Arrange the prepared baking sheet on the painted pine wood surface so it’s ready to receive the assembled roll ups — this is your primary work area for the rest of the recipe.
Step 2: Make softly scrambled eggs
Melt the tablespoon of butter in a medium skillet, then pour in the four whisked eggs and cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently until they are softly scrambled and just set. Season with salt and pepper to taste and transfer the creamy scrambled eggs to a shallow matte ceramic bowl to cool slightly and hold their shape.
Step 3: Assemble the sausage and egg roll ups
Unroll the crescent dough onto the prepared parchment-lined baking sheet, keeping the triangular pieces separated. On the wide end of each triangle place one half-slice of cheddar, add an even portion of the scrambled eggs atop the cheese, then lay a cooked breakfast sausage link on top. Roll each triangle up over the fillings, sealing and placing each roll seam-side down on the same rectangular baking sheet so they’re lined up neatly and ready for the oven.
Step 4: Bake until golden and serve warm
Bake the assembled rolls for about 15 minutes, or until the crescent dough has puffed and turned a light golden brown with edges that slightly peel away to reveal warm egg and melted cheese. Let them rest briefly on the same baking sheet, then serve warm directly from the parchment-lined rectangle for a rustic, comforting presentation.
Notes
- Use unsalted butter to control seasoning
- Cook eggs low and remove while slightly soft for creamy texture
- Freeze assembled roll ups on a tray before bagging for best freezer storage
- Reheat in oven to restore crispness rather than microwaving
- If using raw sausage, precook fully before assembling
