Step-by-Step Instructions for Sausage Crescent Rolls
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 eggs and 2 tablespoons of milk. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook 8 breakfast sausage links for about 5-7 minutes, breaking apart as they cook.
  4. In the same skillet, pour in the egg mixture and scramble the eggs over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Open a tube of refrigerated crescent dough and unroll it onto a clean surface, separating into triangles.
  6. On each triangle, place a portion of scrambled eggs, shredded cheddar cheese, and cooked sausage.
  7. Starting from the wider end, roll the dough towards the pointed end to form a crescent shape.
  8. Place the assembled rolls seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-14 minutes.
  9. Let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet before serving.
