Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 20 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 4 slices bacon, cooked
- 2 eggs
- 1/4 cup cheese (Cheddar or American)
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that your crescent rolls bake evenly and become golden brown.
- While the oven is preheating, prepare your ingredients. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel to drain excess grease.
- In the same skillet, crack the eggs and cook them to your desired doneness. You can scramble, fry, or make them over-easy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the eggs are cooked, set them aside and chop the bacon into smaller pieces.
- Open the can of crescent roll dough and unroll it onto a clean surface. Separate the dough into individual triangles as indicated on the packaging.
- On each triangle of dough, place a slice of cooked bacon, a portion of the cooked eggs, and a sprinkle of cheese. You can use either Cheddar or American cheese, depending on your preference.
- Starting from the wide end of the triangle, carefully roll the dough towards the pointed end, encasing the bacon, eggs, and cheese inside. Pinch the edges to seal the filling inside.
- Place the rolled crescent sandwiches on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave some space between each sandwich to allow for even baking.
- Once the oven is preheated, place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and puffed up.
- After baking, remove the sandwiches from the oven and let them cool for a minute or two. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Bacon and Eggs Crescent Sandwiches!
Tips
- For extra crispy bacon, cook it in the oven on a wire rack before assembling your sandwiches.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like pepper jack or Swiss for unique flavor combinations.
- Make sure to seal the edges of your crescent rolls tightly to prevent filling from leaking during baking.
- If you're meal prepping, these sandwiches can be assembled ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to bake.
- For a healthier version, use turkey bacon and low-fat cheese.
- Let the sandwiches cool for a few minutes after baking to prevent burning your mouth and allow the cheese to set.
- Serve with a side of fresh fruit or a small salad to complete your breakfast experience.
