Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 8 ounces refrigerated crescent roll dough
- cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula, until browned and fully cooked. Drain off any excess grease.
Reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese to the skillet. Stir until the cream cheese is fully melted and combined with the sausage. Remove the skillet from heat and set it aside.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, pinching the seams together to form a single layer.
Spread the sausage and cream cheese mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage layer in the baking dish.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
Allow the casserole to cool slightly for 5 minutes before cutting into squares and serving. Enjoy!
