(Tip: You'll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Unroll the crescent rolls and arrange them in the bottom of the baking dish, pressing the seams together to form a crust.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Stir in the cooked and crumbled breakfast sausage or bacon and shredded cheddar cheese.

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the crescent rolls in the baking dish.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown.

Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Storage/Reheating

If you have leftovers, I recommend storing them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply pop a serving in the microwave for about 30-45 seconds or bake in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, until heated through.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Yes, you can! While cheddar cheese is delicious, you can substitute with mozzarella, Monterey Jack, or any cheese you prefer.

Can I make this casserole ahead of time?

Absolutely! You can prepare the casserole the night before, cover it, and refrigerate it overnight. In the morning, just pop it into the oven and bake as directed.

Can I use a different breakfast meat?

Yes, you can swap in bacon, ham, or even make it vegetarian by using sautéed veggies like bell peppers or spinach in place of meat.

What size baking dish should I use?

This recipe works best with a 9x9-inch baking dish. If you don’t have one, you could use a similar size dish or even a slightly larger one, though the casserole might cook a little faster.

How do I know when the casserole is done?

The casserole is done when the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown. You can test by inserting a knife into the center – it should come out clean.

Conclusion

This Quick & Easy Crescent Roll Breakfast Casserole is a simple and delicious dish that makes mornings a whole lot easier.
