Ingredients

Scale

Egg Mixture

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tablespoons red bell pepper (finely diced)
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Dough

  • 2 8-ounce cans crescent dough sheets

Fillings

  • 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

  1. Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13-inch baking pan thoroughly with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Make Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, finely diced red bell pepper, milk, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Scramble Eggs: Pour the egg mixture into a preheated skillet over medium heat and scramble until fully cooked. Remove from heat and set aside to cool slightly.
  4. Prepare Dough Base: Open the two cans of crescent dough and unroll the sheets on a clean surface. Pinch the two long edges of the sheets together to form one large rectangular sheet of dough.
  5. Spread Cream Cheese: Evenly spread the whipped chive and onion cream cheese across the entire surface of the dough rectangle.
  6. Add Fillings: Layer the scrambled eggs evenly over the cream cheese, then add the cooked ground breakfast sausage. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon and shredded cheddar cheese on top.
  7. Roll the Dough: Starting from one edge, roll the dough tightly into a log, encasing all the fillings inside.
  8. Slice Rolls: Using a serrated knife, cut the rolled dough into 12 equal slices to form individual breakfast rolls.
  9. Arrange and Bake: Place the rolls cut side up into the greased 9×13-inch baking pan, leaving a little space between each roll.
  10. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 24 to 26 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown on top and cooked through.
  11. Serve: Remove from oven and serve the breakfast rolls warm for a delicious, flavorful morning meal.
