How To Make Sausage Wraps
Making these breakfast sausage wraps with eggs and cheese is super easy. Let me walk you through the simple process
Scramble Eggs
Crack the eggs into a bowl and whisk until even in color (should be a pale yellow). Reserve 2 tablespoons of the eggs and set aside for later.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a tablespoon of butter. Stir in the whisked eggs and let cook, stirring occasionally, until the eggs are no longer runny. Remove from heat.
Cook Sausage Links
The sausage links should be cooked prior to baking, because the roll ups are not baked long enough to cook them.
You could either purchase the pre-cooked sausage links or use raw links and cook them ahead of time. Using the air fryer is a no-fuss method that works perfectly!
Assemble Breakfast Roll Ups
Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate them into triangles.
Top each triangle with half a slice of cheddar cheese, a spoonful of scrambled eggs and 1 sausage link.
Loosely roll up the triangles into a crescent roll shape and place on an baking sheet.
Brush Tops with Egg
Using the reserved whisked eggs, brush the tops of the unbaked roll ups and season with salt and pepper.
The egg wash will give the roll ups a nice golden brown color when baked.
Bake Till Golden
Pop the tray of sausage, egg and cheese breakfast roll ups in a 350 degree oven and bake for about 15 to 18 minutes, or until golden brown.
Make Ahead and Storage
These breakfast roll ups are a great make ahead breakfast. Simply bake, cool and then wrap individually and store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
You can also freeze these individually for up to 3 months.
Reheat in the microwave from frozen, crisp up in a toaster oven or air fryer if desired.
I can’t wait for you to give these easy Sausage Breakfast Roll Ups a try!

These are fantastic! I made a batch to have as breakfast so I don’t need to cook before going to work in the morning. Definitely holding on to this recipe!

How do you get 1 carb per serving? I looked up the nutrition facts and it says 12 carbs pro Pillsbury crescent dinner roll.
Renee
Instead of scrambling the eggs, I make a slab of eggs and cut to size, makes rolling up so much easier.
Linda
Can these be frozen and re-heated later?
Greg
Sausage links, cooked or not when you roll them up???
jeni
I was wondering the same. I’m going to cook them about 1/2 way first cook them then roll them in the croissants to bake.
Betsy
I made these today, I added garlic salt to the tops for a little more flavor and they came out great!
