Breakfast crescent roll-ups are filling and oh so easy, and always a crowd-pleaser!
No need to run through the drive-thru on those busy mornings. Just whip up these sausage, egg, and cheese breakfast crescent roll-ups. Sausages wrapped in crescent rolls, with tender cheesy scrambled eggs. A perfect grab-and-go breakfast!
I seriously love a savory breakfast, it's my favorite meal of the day! So I could never say no to a breakfast crescent roll-up warm right out of the oven...YUM! I love easy recipes that are perfect for my large family, just like my Pinwheel Appetizers that we make often when we have game night.
Make a big batch of these for Christmas or Easter morning. Or just a grab and go breakfast on a busy weekday morning.
Tips for making breakfast crescent roll-ups
- You can use cooked bacon or even ham instead of sausage links if you prefer.
- I use a mixture of pepper jack and cheddar cheese but whatever cheese is your favorite works here.
- Try mixing things up and adding some mushrooms to fresh spinach to the mixture.
- I like adding the parmesan on top but Everything Bagel Seasoning is also delicious.
Can this be made ahead of time?
Yes to some extent, I make the sausages, and scrambled eggs and shred the cheese the night before. Then just pop open the crescents and roll everything together.
Can I freeze these breakfast crescent roll-ups?
Yes, bake according to the recipe directions. Once cooled place them on a baking sheet and place them in the freezer to flash freeze. Once frozen place into a large ziplock freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 months. When ready to eat simply reheat in the microwave until warmed through.
How to store
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Reheat in the microwave until warm.

I'm sorry they didn't turn out for you. Sounds like your oven was too hot or they were too close to the bottom of the oven.
Made this today for Easter brunch, cooking for 18 to 20 mins burned the bottoms so badly, not sure I will be serving them! I thought it was just the cheese on the pan burning, so bummed, but thet look food on top!
If you only want to use one roll-up as a serving that's fine but it really wouldn't be an adequate adult size portion.
