Ingredients
Ingredients
- 8 breakfast sausage links
- 1 can refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds or everything seasoning (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and aid in easy cleanup.
- Prepare Dough: Unroll the crescent roll dough on a clean surface and separate it into individual triangles according to the perforations.
- Wrap Sausage: Take one sausage link and place it at the wide end of a crescent dough triangle, then roll the dough tightly around the sausage, ensuring the seam is on the bottom side to seal the dough well.
- Prepare for Baking: Arrange the wrapped sausages seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly.
- Apply Toppings: Brush the tops of the dough with melted butter to encourage browning and a glossy finish. Sprinkle garlic powder or your choice of sesame seeds or everything seasoning for added flavor, if desired.
- Bake: Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are puffed and golden brown.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve warm. These are great with dipping sauces like maple syrup or honey mustard for a tasty contrast.
Notes
- Serve with maple syrup or honey mustard for dipping to enhance flavor.
- Add a slice of cheese on top of the sausage before rolling for extra richness and flavor.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat before serving.
