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 and prepare pan: Preheat oven to 350℉ and grease a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix egg ingredients: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, red bell pepper, milk, and black pepper until combined.
- Cook the eggs: Scramble the egg mixture on the stovetop over medium heat until fully cooked, then remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Prepare dough: Open the two cans of crescent dough and unroll the sheets. Pinch the long edges of the sheets together to form one large rectangular dough sheet.
- Spread cream cheese: Evenly spread the whipped chive and onion cream cheese over the surface of the dough rectangle.
- Add fillings: Layer the cooled scrambled eggs, cooked ground sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the cream cheese layer.
- Roll the dough: Carefully roll up the dough tightly starting from one long edge to the other, creating a log.
- Slice rolls: Using a serrated knife, cut the rolled dough log into 12 equal slices for individual rolls.
- Bake: Place the rolls cut side up in the prepared pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 26 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from oven and serve the breakfast rolls warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- If crescent dough sheets are unavailable, substitute with a tube of pizza dough or 1 pound loaf of bread dough; thaw and roll out into a rectangle.
- Use pre-cooked diced breakfast sausage patties and pre-cooked bacon to save time during preparation.
- You can swap whipped chive and onion cream cheese with garlic and herb, plain, or low-fat whipped cream cheese for flavor variation.
- Allow the eggs and meat filling to cool slightly before spreading on dough to prevent dough from becoming soggy and difficult to roll.
