Description

These Savory Breakfast Rolls are a delicious and easy-to-make morning treat featuring flaky puff pastry or crescent roll dough filled with fluffy scrambled eggs, sharp cheddar cheese, savory breakfast sausage or bacon, and fresh green onions. Perfectly golden and puffed after baking, they make a satisfying breakfast or brunch option that can be customized with your favorite veggies or seasonings.


Ingredients

Scale

Rolls

  • 1 sheet puff pastry or 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough

Filling

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup cooked crumbled breakfast sausage or chopped cooked bacon
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter (for greasing or cooking eggs)

Topping (optional)

  • Everything bagel seasoning or sesame seeds


Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Cook Eggs: In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into the skillet and scramble the eggs until just set but still moist. Remove from heat and let them cool slightly.
  3. Prepare Dough: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry or crescent roll dough into a rectangle. If using crescent dough, gently press the seams together to seal.
  4. Assemble Rolls: Evenly spread the scrambled eggs over the dough surface. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese, cooked sausage or bacon, and chopped green onions evenly on top.
  5. Roll and Slice: Carefully roll the dough tightly from one long edge into a log shape. Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into 8 equal pieces and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Add Toppings and Bake: Sprinkle the rolls with everything bagel seasoning or sesame seeds if using. Bake in the preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed.
  7. Serve: Allow the rolls to cool for a few minutes before serving warm. Enjoy your savory breakfast rolls fresh from the oven!

Notes

  • Customize the filling by adding chopped spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers for extra vegetables.
  • Use pre-cooked frozen breakfast sausage or bacon to save prep time.
  • These breakfast rolls are ideal for meal prep and reheat well in the oven or microwave.
  • For a vegetarian option, omit sausage or bacon and consider adding more veggies or plant-based sausage alternatives.
  • Make sure not to overcook the scrambled eggs during the initial cooking step to keep them moist inside the rolls.
