🥐 Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups
Ingredients (Makes 6–8 roll-ups)
-
6–8 large eggs
-
6 breakfast sausage links or 1 cup cooked sausage crumbles
-
6–8 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite)
-
1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough or puff pastry sheets
-
Salt and pepper, to taste
-
Optional: chopped green onions, bell peppers, or spinach
Instructions
1. Cook the sausage
-
If using links, cook and slice them.
-
If using crumbles, cook in a skillet over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Drain excess grease.
2. Scramble the eggs
-
Whisk eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.
-
Cook in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until just set (soft, slightly runny eggs are best—they’ll continue cooking in the oven).
3. Prepare the dough
-
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Roll out crescent dough or puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
-
Cut into rectangles large enough to hold eggs, sausage, and cheese.
4. Assemble roll-ups
-
Place scrambled eggs in the center of each rectangle.
-
Top with sausage pieces and a slice of cheese.
-
Optional: sprinkle with chopped veggies or herbs.
-
Fold dough over and seal edges—roll into neat little packages.
5. Bake
-
Place roll-ups on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
-
Bake 12–15 minutes, until golden brown.
6. Serve
-
Warm, gooey, and cheesy!
-
Optional: serve with ketchup, hot sauce, or salsa for dipping.
Tips & Variations
-
Make-ahead: Assemble, freeze, and bake in the morning—just add a few extra minutes to baking time.
-
Cheese options: Pepper jack adds a spicy kick; Swiss is great for a milder flavor.
-
Extra veggies: Spinach, mushrooms, or peppers can be folded in with the eggs.
-
Mini version: Cut dough smaller to make bite-sized breakfast roll-ups for parties or brunch.
These are golden, savory, and portable—basically breakfast perfection in one hand 🥰
I can also give a microwave version for 5-minute breakfast roll-ups if you want the super fast option. Do you want me to do that?
