These breakfast Pillsbury crescent rolls have become a big family favorite of ours. You might be thinking - well, isn’t it just a bacon egg and cheese? Whats the big deal? I guess you'd be right to question it but the warm crescent rolls turn them into a whole other breakfast experience. It’s a truly unique flavor combination.

They’re so light and buttery and go together so we’ll with the salty bacon and fluffy eggs. These are perfect to make for a crowd, too. They’re all done at the same time so everyone can eat together. It’s a great breakfast or brunch idea when the whole family is around to sit at the table and enjoy them together.

How To Make Them

Heres how to make this delicious breakfast. You can find the full ingredients list along with instructions on the recipe card below.

Preheat the oven to 375°

First, scramble add the eggs in a small bowl and add them to a greased skillet over medium high heat. Let the eggs cook for a few minutes, season them with salt and pepper and gently fold the omelette into itself creating a large french omelette. Break the omelette into 8 equal sized pieces.

PRO TIP: You can just scramble the eggs instead of making the omelette but they may fall apart more easily

Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Open the crescent rolls, separate the triangles and lay them out on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Add one slice of cheese and bacon to the largest part of the triangle. Place a piece of the omelette on top.

PRO TIP: I like using American Cheese slices instead of shredded cheese because it stays in the crescent roll triangle more easily.

Now, roll the crescent rolls up around the bacon, egg and cheese starting with the wide bottom and ending with the top of the triangle. Pinch/ push the dough together slightly to seal it.

Place them into the center rack of the oven for about 10-13 minutes or until the dough is golden brown and cooked all the way through. Finally, let them cool slightly, serve and enjoy!

PRO TIP: Place it into the center rack to ensure they are cooked evenly and don't begin to burn on the bottom.

Do I Have To Use Bacon?

No, you don't have to use bacon at all. Swap the bacon out for taylor ham, breakfast sausage or you can even omit it completely.

Storage

Let the breakfast sandwiches cool and place them into a food safe, air tight container. They will last in the fridge for up to three days.
