How To Make Breakfast With Crescent Rolls
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. You can easily make these in the toaster oven in two batches of 4 rolls each.
2. Start off by scrambling the eggs and cooking the bacon. When those are done, set them aside and unroll and separate the crescent dough.
3. Place ½ slice of American cheese, ½ piece of the bacon slices and a spoonful of scrambled eggs into the middle of each crescent roll triangle.
4. Roll up the crescent rolls from the wider side to the point, careful to keep the contents inside. You may need to pinch some of the corners of the dough if the contents are spilling out.
5. Bake the rolls on a lightly greased baking sheet or pan for 18 minutes until golden brown on top.
6. Serve this breakfast stuffed crescent rolls while still warm. The cheese will still be gooey and they will be extra delicious.

Tips for Egg and Bacon Crescent Rolls
Tip 1: If the crescent roll dough is browning too quickly, you can place some aluminum foil on top for the remainder of the cooking time.
Tip 2: Be sure not to overfill the rolls. A little egg and cheese goes a long way. Too much can make the rolls hard to seal.
Tip 3: Let them cool slightly before serving. They're very hot straight from the oven. Let them rest for a few minutes, especially for kids.
FAQs for Breakfast Crescent Rolls
Sure you can. I am a big fan of the crispy bacon, but if you don't eat bacon or prefer something else, it's all good!
Due to the egg inside, this recipe is one that is best eaten when made. It doesn't reheat well.
You'll want to keep an eye on these as they cook. If you notice they are at your desired brownness, but there is cook time remaining, cover them with foil until done.
