Ingredients
Scale
Egg Mixture
- 4 eggs
- 2 tablespoons red bell pepper, finely diced
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Dough and Fillings
- 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 your oven to 350℉ (175℃) and grease a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Prepare Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, finely diced red bell pepper, milk, and black pepper until well combined.
- Scramble Eggs: Cook the egg mixture on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring frequently, until scrambled and fully cooked. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
- Prepare Dough Base: Open the two cans of crescent dough and carefully unroll the sheets of dough on a clean work surface.
- Form Dough Rectangle: Pinch the seams together along the two long edges of the sheets to create one large rectangular dough base.
- Spread Cream Cheese: Evenly spread the whipped chive and onion cream cheese over the entire surface of the dough rectangle.
- Add Fillings: Layer the cooled scrambled eggs, cooked ground breakfast sausage, crumbled bacon, and shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the cream cheese layer.
- Roll Up Dough: Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough up into a log, keeping the filling inside.
- Slice Rolls: Using a serrated knife, cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices to form individual rolls.
- Arrange in Pan: Place the rolls cut-side up neatly into the prepared 9×13-inch baking pan, fitting all 12 slices snugly.
- Bake Rolls: Bake in the preheated oven for 24 to 26 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the dough is cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve the breakfast rolls warm for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Make sure the scrambled eggs are cool before layering on the dough to prevent it from becoming soggy.
- These rolls can be made ahead and refrigerated; reheat before serving.
- You can substitute sausage and bacon with vegetarian alternatives if desired.
- Use whipped cream cheese for easy spreading, or soften regular cream cheese before use.
- Adjust the amount of cheese based on your preference for cheesiness.
