Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 package (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 6 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly coat a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it into crumbles, until fully cooked and browned, about 8-10 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside to cool slightly.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even crust. Pinch the perforations together to seal the seams.
Spread the cooked sausage evenly over the crescent roll crust.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, and black pepper until fully combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese.
Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the sausage and crescent roll crust.
Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm.
