Sausage and Egg Breakfast Casserole
We can’t count how many times we’ve mentioned our love for breakfast recipes!
From muffins to pancakes to French Toast to eggs – we love it all! And one of our favorites are breakfast casseroles. Today’s recipe includes a few of our favorite ingredients, including sausage, eggs and crescent rolls.
We saw the recipe on Hello Happiness, and decided to give it a try. The casserole really was simple to put together and was ready in a short 20 minutes.
How to Make Sausage Egg Breakfast Casserole
If you like sausage, you’ll love this recipe, but if you prefer bacon you can use that instead or include both – which is what we like to do. Here are the ingredients needed for this casserole:
- sausage
- crescent sheet or crescent rolls
- cheese
- eggs
- milk
- Italian seasoning
- salt & pepper
Start the casserole by preparing your sausage. While the sausage is browning, unroll the crescent sheet and spread onto the bottom of a greased 9×13 pan. Spread the sausage over the dough and sprinkle the cheese on top.
Whisk together eggs, milk and seasoning in a bowl and pour over the top of your casserole. Bake at 400 degrees for 15-20 minutes. When the eggs are set and the crust is golden, the casserole is ready.
Sausage Breakfast Casserole FAQ
Can you make this sausage casserole ahead of time? Yes, you can! You can make this up to 24 hours before cook time. Just cover and place in fridge until ready to cook.
Which cheese works best for this dish? We like cheddar, but most combos work for this. You can even use a Mexican or Monterrey Jack cheese and add chopped peppers to give it a more Mexican-style taste.
How to store breakfast casserole with crescent rolls? Once cooked, cover and keep in fridge for 4-5 days. Reheat in the microwave.
Can you use pre-cooked sausage for this recipe? Yes, you can. It makes it even more simple and quick. You can also change up the sausage if you like a more mild or spicy version.
Can you use crescent rolls instead of a crescent sheet? Of course. Just be sure to pinch the seams together when placing in the bottom of your pan.
