Ingredients
  

Dough and Filling
  • 1 package crescent roll dough Usually 8 triangles in a standard package
  • 2 links cooked sausage, crumbled Use turkey or chicken sausage if preferred
  • 2 large eggs, scrambled Scramble gently to keep tender
  • to taste shredded cheese Optional; cheddar, Monterey Jack, or pepper jack work well

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Lightly grease a baking sheet or line it with parchment. Unroll or gently press the crescent dough into one sheet on the baking sheet, sealing perforations.
  3. Heat a skillet over medium. Crumble and cook the sausage until golden and cooked through. Remove to a bowl and keep warm.
  4. In the same skillet (wipe if needed), scramble the eggs gently over medium-low heat. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Combine the cooked sausage and scrambled eggs in the bowl. If using cheese, fold some into the mixture.
Assembly and Baking
  1. Spoon even portions of the sausage and egg mixture along the wide end of the dough sheet.
  2. Roll the dough up from the wide end into a log, tucking the ends as needed.
  3. Place the seam-side down on the baking sheet. Brush the top with melted butter or milk for color (optional).
  4. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until the crescents are puffed and golden brown.
  5. Let rest for a couple of minutes, slice into portions, and serve warm.
