Sausage Egg and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups
Introduction
If you want a breakfast that’s grab-and-go, packed with flavor, and guaranteed to keep everyone satisfied, Sausage Egg and Cheese Breakfast Roll-Ups hit the mark. These golden bites wrap together all the fan favorites—savory sausage, creamy scrambled eggs, and gooey melted cheese—inside perfectly soft, warm dough.
Whether for a busy weekday morning, a brunch with friends, or meal-prepping ahead, this recipe brings both simplicity and unbeatable crowd-pleasing flavor to your table.
What Makes These Roll-Ups Irresistible?
The secret is balance: rich sausage meets the pillowy softness of scrambled eggs, while sharp cheese ties everything together. Each bite bursts with comforting breakfast flavors, and the handheld form makes them perfect for commuters or little hands.
The brilliant thing about this recipe is its versatility. Swap the sausage for bacon or spinach, use your favorite cheese, or add diced veggies for extra nutrition—the result is always delicious!
How to Prepare the Filling
Start by preparing your sausage, eggs, and cheese filling. Using a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper, you can quickly dice onions, peppers, or any other add-ins to sauté with your sausage for an extra flavor boost.
Scramble eggs until just set in a nonstick skillet like the SENSARTE Nonstick Frying Pan Skillet, 9.5 Inch, then combine with the cooked sausage and cheese. The goal is a warm, cohesive mixture that readily spoons into your dough.
Rolling and Baking for the Perfect Breakfast
Layout crescent or biscuit dough, and spoon the sausage-egg-cheese mixture onto each piece. Roll tightly, tucking ends if needed to keep the fillings secure.
For an even bake and effortless cleanup, line your baking sheet with Reynolds Kitchens Brown Parchment Paper Roll. Brush the tops with melted butter or a quick wash for a rich, glossy finish before slipping them in the oven.
Want a crispy exterior without turning on the oven? The COSORI Air Fryer 9-in-1, Compact & Large 6-Qt, Grey delivers perfectly golden roll-ups in less time.
Serving Suggestions and Meal Prep Tips
These roll-ups are satisfying on their own but pair beautifully with fresh fruit or a simple breakfast salad packed into a Bentgo Salad Container for an easy morning meal.
For meal preppers: After baking, cool completely and store in airtight containers like Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5 (3.2 Cup). Reheat in the microwave or air fryer for a grab-and-go breakfast all week.
