Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup green onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon paprika
- 1 package store-bought refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or butter.
In a large skillet, cook the ground breakfast sausage over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spatula. Drain excess grease and set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, heavy cream, flour, salt, pepper, and paprika until smooth.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella cheese, green onion, and cooked sausage to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, ensuring it completely covers the base and slightly presses up the sides. Pinch any seams together to seal.
Pour the egg and sausage mixture evenly over the crescent roll dough base.
Brush the edges of the crescent roll dough with the melted butter for a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40–45 minutes, or until the top is set, golden brown, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool for 10 minutes before slicing into squares.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
