Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole
I make this casserole any time we are having overnight guests. Even the pickiest of kiddos loves this savory breakfast dish.
Equipment
- 9 x 13 baking dish
Ingredients
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 tube crescent rolls
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 8 large eggs
- 2 cups whole milk
- ½ teaspoon salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 °F and grease a 9 x 13 baking dish.
- Brown your pork sausage in a medium skillet until the pink is gone. Drain the cooked sausage.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, salt, pepper, and milk together.
- Open the tube of crescent rolls and press into the bottom of your baking dish. Spread the sausage evenly over the crescent rolls. Sprinkle the cheese on top of the sausage.
- Pour the egg and milk mixture over the sausage and cheese.
- Bake the casserole 35 minutes, or until the center is done and doesn't jiggle.
- Allow casserole to cool for 10 minutes before cutting.
Notes
Make Ahead Instructions:
To make this casserole ahead, prepare the casserole, but do not bake it. Cover it with aluminum foil and place in the refrigerator for up to overnight.
When you are ready to bake it, preheat the oven and allow the casserole to sit on the kitchen counter while the oven preheats. Remove the aluminum foil and bake as directed.
