Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your baking dish by greasing or lining it.
  2. Cook the ground breakfast sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess grease.
  3. In a bowl, whisk large eggs, then pour into the skillet and scramble until just set, about 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  4. Unroll the crescent roll dough onto a floured surface, pinching seams to create a rectangle.
  5. Spread scrambled eggs over the dough, then add cooked sausage and shredded cheddar cheese evenly.
  6. Roll the dough tightly into a log and slice into 1-inch rounds.
  7. Place the sliced rolls in your prepared baking dish, spacing them out. Refrigerate if making ahead or bake immediately.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and puffy.
  9. Prepare the cheese sauce by melting butter in a saucepan, whisking in flour, then gradually adding milk until thickened. Mix in cheddar cheese.
  10. Once baked, drizzle the cheese sauce over the rolls and garnish with parsley or green onions.
