Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 ounces refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 6 large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup diced green onions (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into an even layer at the bottom of the baking dish, pinching the seams together where necessary to form a solid crust.
In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked through. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the crescent roll crust in the baking dish.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage, spreading it evenly across the dish.
Top with the shredded cheddar cheese, distributing it evenly over the surface.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Garnish with diced green onions, if desired.
Slice into squares and serve warm. Enjoy your Crescent Crust Sausage Brunch Casserole!
