Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Dough (Choose One):

  • 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough or
  • 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough or
  • 1 batch homemade pizza or brioche dough

For the Filling:

  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • 6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled or 6 breakfast sausage links, cooked and crumbled
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella, Swiss, or pepper jack)

For the Buttery Topping:

  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp dried parsley
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Make the Scrambled Eggs

  1. In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper.
  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Pour in the eggs and scramble until just set.
  3. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 2: Prepare the Dough

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. If using crescent roll dough, separate into triangles. If using biscuit dough, flatten each piece slightly.

Step 3: Fill & Roll

  1. Place a spoonful of scrambled eggs, crumbled bacon or sausage, and shredded cheese onto each piece of dough.
  2. Roll up tightly, tucking in the sides if needed. Place seam-side down on the baking sheet.

Step 4: Add the Buttery Topping

  1. In a small bowl, mix melted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, parsley, and smoked paprika.
  2. Brush the mixture over the rolls before baking.

Step 5: Bake & Serve

  1. Bake for 12-15 minutes (crescent dough) or 15-18 minutes (biscuit dough), until golden brown.
  2. Let cool for a few minutes, then serve warm!

Notes

  • Make It Spicy: Add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the eggs.
  • Cheese Options: Swap cheddar for Swiss, Monterey Jack, or American cheese.
  • Make Ahead: Assemble the rolls the night before, then bake in the morning.
  • Storage: Keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
