  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 8 rolls

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 1 teaspoon butter
  • 5 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)

Rolls

  • 8 Pillsbury crescent rolls (1 can)
  • 2 ounces shredded cheddar cheese
  • 8 fully cooked turkey breakfast sausages
  • 1 egg (beaten for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375℉ (190℃). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat to prevent sticking and for easy cleanup.
  2. Prepare Scrambled Eggs: In a bowl, beat the 5 eggs until blended. Heat the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Pour in the beaten eggs and gently pull the eggs across the pan using a spatula as they begin to set, forming large soft curds. Continue folding and stirring gently until the eggs are thickened and no liquid remains. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Roll Out Dough: Sprinkle the all-purpose flour onto your work surface to prevent sticking. Unroll the crescent dough over the floured surface and roll it out gently with a rolling pin as needed. Pinch the seams if necessary, then cut the dough into 8 rectangles.
  4. Assemble Rolls: On each rectangle, spoon a couple of heaping spoonfuls of scrambled eggs, sprinkle some shredded cheddar cheese, and place one fully cooked turkey breakfast sausage.
  5. Form Rolls: Carefully roll up each rectangle over the filling and place seam-side down onto the prepared baking sheet. Repeat for all 8 rolls.
  6. Apply Egg Wash and Season: Brush each roll generously with the beaten egg wash to achieve a golden finish. Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper on top of each roll for seasoning.
  7. Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed and golden brown.

Notes

  • You can substitute crescent roll dough with puff pastry dough for a different texture.
  • These breakfast rolls freeze well; reheat in a 400℉ oven for 10-15 minutes until warmed through.
  • Feel free to use any type of breakfast sausage according to your preference.
