Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) ground breakfast sausage, cooked
- 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups (170 grams) shredded cheddar cheese
Dough and Dairy:
- 2 (8-ounce/226 grams) cans crescent dough sheets
- 1/3 cup (80 milliliters) whipped chive and onion cream cheese
- 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) milk
Seasonings and Vegetables:
- 2 tablespoons (30 grams) red bell pepper, finely diced
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F (175C) and thoroughly coat a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Whisk eggs, diced bell pepper, milk, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Scramble the mixture in a skillet over medium heat until just cooked but still tender, then let cool slightly.
- Carefully unroll the crescent dough sheets and press the long edges together to form a single large rectangular surface.
- Spread whipped cream cheese evenly across the entire dough surface, ensuring complete coverage.
- Layer the scrambled eggs, cooked sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheese uniformly across the cream cheese-covered dough.
- Tightly roll the dough from one long edge, creating a compact cylindrical log with all ingredients enclosed.
- Using a sharp serrated knife, slice the log into 12 equal-sized rounds, maintaining consistent thickness.
- Arrange the slices cut-side up in the prepared baking pan, allowing slight spacing between each roll.
- Bake for 24-26 minutes until the tops turn golden brown and the dough appears fully cooked.
- Remove from the oven and serve immediately while warm for optimal flavor and texture.
Notes
- Work with crescent dough cold for easier rolling and less sticking, preventing messy preparation.
- Use room temperature cream cheese for smoother spreading and better incorporation into the filling.
- Swap meat proteins with vegetarian alternatives like plant-based sausage or tofu scramble for dietary preferences.
- Prepare rolls the night before, refrigerate, and bake fresh in the morning for convenient meal prep.
