Servings 6 people
Ingredients
- 1 can premade crescent roll dough
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 package breakfast sausage spicy or regular (we like spicy)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp fresh sage and rosemary optional
Instructions
- Cook your breakfast sausage in a skillet until browns and crumbly. I like to use Jimmy Dean sausage. Once cooked drain off excess fat.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Unwrap your crescent roll dough and create a 9 by 13 sized sheet of dough by crimping the perforations back together. Often you can find the dough un actual sheets instead of being precut.
- In a medium/large bowl add the softened cream cheese, cooked sausage, herbs and garlic powder and mix all together until well combined. You can use a hand mixer if you need to.
- Spread the cream cheese and sausage mixture over the entire sheet of crescent dough. Once it is evenly spread, roll up the dough like you would for cinnamon rolls.
- With a sharp knife or by using some thread, cut 1/2-1 inch rolls.
- Place them on a prepared baking sheet. Once they are all on the sheet, bake in the oven for 10 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about 5-10 minutes before eating. Letting them sit a bit longer is better. Best served warm.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. You can reheat in an airfryer if needed.
