Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons red bell pepper finely diced
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Dough and Filling
- 2 8-ounce cans crescent dough sheets
- 1/3 cup whipped chive and onion cream cheese
- 8 ounces ground breakfast sausage cooked
- 4 slices bacon cooked and crumbled
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray to prepare for baking.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, finely diced red bell pepper, milk, and black pepper until fully combined.
- Cook Eggs: Scramble the egg mixture on the stovetop over medium heat until fully cooked. Set aside to let the eggs cool slightly.
- Prepare Dough: Open the two cans of crescent dough sheets and unroll them. Pinch the two long edges together to create one large rectangular sheet for filling.
- Add Cream Cheese: Spread the whipped chive and onion cream cheese evenly over the entire dough rectangle.
- Layer Filling: Evenly distribute the cooled scrambled eggs, cooked ground breakfast sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese over the cream cheese layer.
- Roll Dough: Starting at one edge, roll the dough tightly into a log shape, enclosing all ingredients inside.
- Slice Rolls: Using a serrated knife, cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices and arrange them standing up in the prepared baking pan.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 26 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove the pan from oven and serve the breakfast rolls warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- If crescent dough sheets are unavailable, substitute with pizza dough or bread dough rolled into a rectangle.
- Use pre-cooked sausage patties and bacon to save time and make preparation easier.
- Whipped cream cheese variations like garlic and herb or low-fat options can be used as alternatives.
- Allow eggs and cooked meats to cool before adding to dough to prevent softening and make rolling easier.
